About this Innovation Talk

What AR and the mobile first world mean for your packaging | Martin Stahel, Zappar

Mobile devices have changed everything about the way we interact with each other and with information in the world around us. Packaging is no exception and augmented reality - AR - is one of the most powerful opportunities for brand owners and packaging developers.

Packaging is a brand’s most undervalued media channel. It’s in constant contact with consumers but too often sits silently. 

Now, through the power of smartphones and AR, brands can create memorable content that engages with consumers and drives commercial value. And a huge uptick in adoption is underway, especially since the arrival of WebAR has removed the need to download an app. 

This interactive Innovation Talk will give you a deep dive into the opportunities that AR presents for packaging development and brands, with case studies from brands such as Nestle, Coca-Cola, Beiersdorf and Bombay Sapphire.

Bring your smartphone to experience live case studies first hand!

By attending this Innovation Talk, you will discover:

  • what AR is and how partners like Nestle, Bombay Sapphire, Beiersdorf, Coca Cola and others harness it to drive commercial returns.
  • how WebAR has removed the need for an app download and has caused a step change in consumer and brand adoption.
  • three top tips for planning your own AR campaign.

You will have a chance to put your questions to Martin in a Q&A session following the talk.
