Digital-to-Offline Location Communication Service for Businesses
The Opportunity
Government offices, shops, and businesses relocating temporarily have no easy way to inform the public about their new addresses — QR codes work for tech-savvy people, but elderly citizens, workers, and those without smartphones can't find them. There's a gap between modern digital signage and traditional communication that reaches everyone.
