The business world is rapidly evolving, and with it, the tools we use to connect and network. Traditional paper business cards are quickly becoming obsolete.
The Environmental Impact
Every year, billions of paper business cards are printed worldwide, with an estimated 27 million trees cut down annually. Most cards end up in landfills within a week. Digital cards eliminate this waste entirely.
