Josh Swank had a good idea of what to present at the Startup Peoria Weekend held last week at Bradley University.
Swank and his team, made up of Chelsie Tamms, a senior graphic arts student at Bradley, and Patrick Hoban, a member of the Decatur Economic Development Council, won the start-up competition with Swank’s concept of Virtual ID.
“IDs don’t contain much information and they’re difficult to update,” said Swank, explaining that what his team presented was an upgrade to a business card in a luggage tag, a concept using modern technology, allowing for immediate updates and additional information.
