What we do
We create iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, and mobile web applications for DMOs/CVBs
Keep your visitors are always connected to the information they need when they need it: your events, conferences, shopping, accommodations, transportation, restaurants and more.
Complete coverage across all Internet-ready smartphones
Advanced features such as GPS-location, itinerary planning, social media, coupons, augmented reality and mapping

How we work
We use your data, your CMS
Data is exported to DAM via “feeds”
You maintain the website, we maintain the mobile sites
Our goals is to create the minimal management work possible for you – just continue your day to day operations

How the app works
Apps have a complete built-in database – they do not require the Internet to work
Each time an app starts they check for the latest updates and download only those
DAM takes care of all app maintenance, built into your contract

Front Page

cycles through 1 or more pictures, fading from one to the next
overlay can be added for branding information

Front Page
