Abstract: A method is disclosed in which exhibitors or information management softwares at an event provide digital content to a content administrator, who in turn processes the digital content and loads it onto a content delivery device. At the event attendees are issued portable memory devices that, when engaged with a content delivery device, upload the digital content from that content delivery device. Each portable memory device has an information management software that enables the attendee to search, correlate and manage the digital content. In some embodiments digital content is loaded to the portable memory device without use of the content delivery device.

Abstract: A system and apparatus for data delivery facilitates secure and controlled delivery of digital information, particularly in the context of an event, but also in the context of commercial and educational forums and the like. Preferably an administrator is positioned between parties wishing to share digital information and parties wishing to obtain such information. The administrator ensures that the digital information falls within certain security and formatting criteria so that parties may obtain the information without fear of damage to or abuse of their computing devices.

Abstract: A method and apparatus includes a portable electronic memory storage device and a plurality of exhibitor computers, each having at least one specifically identified electronic uploadable file and a port adapted to selectively interface with the portable device. When a portable device engages a port, electronic content corresponding to the port is uploaded from the computer to the portable device. In another embodiment, data from the portable device, such as demographic data, is also downloaded to the exhibitor computer.
