Business cards Wellington
Business cards in Wellington increasingly combine a QR code and an NFC chip so a contact can tap or scan straight to a live profile. That suits Wellington's mix of government departments, screen production companies and creative agencies clustered around the central city.
Government, public sector and the screen industry
Wellington's economy is shaped heavily by central government departments and agencies based around Lambton Quay and the Pipitea precinct, alongside a well-established screen and creative industry sector spread through Miramar and the wider CBD. A smart card suits both worlds: a formal QR-code exchange in a government building, and a quick NFC tap between production meetings.
A public sector contact can scan a card and add a name straight to their phone via the vCard "save contact" button, which is often more welcome in a badge-and-security-pass environment than handling loose paper.
Te Papa events and local delivery
Wellington hosts conferences and public events at venues including Te Papa, and a profile with a booking link or portfolio attachment gives a creative freelancer or agency more to show a new contact than a name and number allow. The profile can also carry a showreel link or PDF, useful for screen industry introductions.
Orders to Wellington and elsewhere in New Zealand are sent by tracked delivery.
