Meet Carlo Capello and Andrea Motto of ProxToMe.  They will be pitching at our 10.16 event. ProxToMe is said to be the FASTEST way to chat and share Dropbox files from your smartphone with your Facebook friends and people nearby. They’ve got some good press this year from the likes of Mashable, Gizmodo and VentureBeat. Here’s what Carlo and Andrea have to say about their phone app.
Andrea says what inspired him for the app:
“Saw a girl at the club but couldn’t figure out how to walk up to her. I tried to find her on Facebook but had a very hard time. Despite the abundance of mobile tech and social networks out there, when it comes to onsite local networks there’s no way to discretely know who’s in the room. But there should be! That’s been the spark, then it’s all about coding!”
Carlo’s chimes in on how he sees their app help events like ours:
“We see a strong opportunity for event organizers and live performers in using our product to get a way more out of every event. We let them make the in-venue experience more innovative and richer. Â Event organizers can establish a direct link with attendees, know who they are, send them messages and files of any type and size in an instant, an continue with the interaction at any time in the future.”
