Event lead capture - also called exhibitor lead capture or trade show lead capture - is the process of collecting, qualifying, and managing leads at in-person events like conferences and exhibitions. It replaces older methods like badge scanners with a universal lead capture app, instant data enrichment, and CRM sync.

Lead retrieval is the process exhibitors use to capture attendee contact information at trade shows and conferences. Traditionally, this meant renting a badge scanner from the event organiser, exporting a CSV at the end of the show, and manually loading it into your CRM. Modern lead retrieval apps like Blinq let teams scan any badge, enrich contacts with verified data, and sync leads to their CRM in real time - at any event, without renting hardware.

It typically comes down to four things. (1) Universal capture: badges, paper cards and QR codes, with the ability to work both online and offline. (2) High quality data enrichment, so a scan becomes a complete lead. (3) Real-time native CRM integrations for seamless data syncing. (4) A way to retain the conversation, not just the contact. Blinq was built around all four, which is why it's the G2 Leader and Easiest to Use in Lead Retrieval.
