Fobi Launches New Digital Conference And Trade Show Management Platform For Conference Venues And Event Organizers Live In Person At The Industry’s Premiere Global Event
August 24 2021 - 5:00AM
Fobi AI Inc. (FOBI:TSXV) (FOBIF:OTCQB) (the "Company" or "Fobi"), a
global leader in providing real-time data analytics through
artificial intelligence to drive customer activation and engagement
is pleased to announce the release of their new Venue Management
System for Conferences & Events that will help venues and
conference organizers provide a better, mobile-first contactless
customer experience, reduce costs and get better analytics about
how attendees are interacting with their event. This packaged
solution consists of Fobi’s Passcreator Wallet passes and
proprietary Smart Tap Devices and the new Smart Scan Pass
Validation App for event check-in and management as well as Fobi’s
Insight Portal for event analytics.
Fobi’s new Venue Management System for Conferences & Events
is officially being launched at the Society for Independent Show
Operators (SISO) summer conference to be held August 24-26 in
Louisville, Kentucky. This is the pre-eminent show for Conference
Operators in North America. SVP of Business Development Mike
Canevaro will be at the Event for the launch and will be meeting
with many key decision-makers for some of the largest Conference
Management companies in the world.
NEW SERVICE DRAWS ON FOBI’S EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE AND
PROVEN SUCCESS AS A LEADER IN THE VENUE MANAGEMENT
SPACE
Drawing on Fobi’s extensive experience in Venue Management, this
new packaged system is a sophisticated, end-to-end mobile-first and
contactless solution that digitizes and automates the entire event
registration & check-in process for conferences and
attendees.
Fobi SVP Mike Canevaro stated: “We are very
excited to launch our new product and service live at this year’s
event. Our latest product will help transform the Event and
Conference sector and provide much-needed support to an industry
that has faced many economic challenges over the last 19 months due
to the forced lockdown as a result of the Covid-19 virus. The
Conference & Events industry is in desperate need of turn-key
solutions that provide a safe and contactless digital experience
for their guests. I believe we will benefit from immediate adoption
as we help create much-needed new line revenues opportunities for
event operators through new digital sponsorships and we will enable
show organizers the ability to monetize their event data via their
show exhibitors, attendees and third parties.”
FOBI’S VENUE MANAGEMENT PLATFORM FINDS ITSELF IN THE
RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME
With venues and conference halls slowly reopening and with the
return of live, in-person conferences back in session, Fobi’s
latest product launch is well-positioned as the need for digital
and contactless guest and attendee applications are front and
center and very well-timed as the Event Management Software
Industry is currently one of the fastest-growing technology
segments and is expected to hit $14.6 Billion by 2025, with 11.56%
CAGR.
The conference and trade show industry has a very traditional
business model with many antiquated and legacy processes. Fobi’s
new digital conference management system is well-timed as it
provides a turnkey mobile-first product offering that bridges the
gap between traditional physical business practices and digital
transformation. And now, with the challenges around Covid-19
resurfacing, Fobi provides a true mobile-first, contactless digital
experience for managing Conferences and Events
FOBI TO ASSIST CONFERENCE AND TRADE SHOW OPERATORS WITH
MUCH NEEDED DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION APPLICATIONS
For anyone who has attended a tradeshow there is no doubt that
the current legacy and antiquated conference management landscape
is severely outdated. With today’s time-consuming and manual
processes, attending and checking into a conference or an event can
be frustrating for attendees, and challenging and expensive for
conference organizers. When attendees arrive at conferences, they
are met with long lines, staff members using clipboards and paper
for check-ins, and a pile of ID badges being rummaged through by
staff to find the right one.
Fobi’s Venue Management for Conferences and Events platform
truly bridges the digital and physical event space. Attendees
register online and are sent a Digital Conference Pass that they
download to the Mobile Wallet on their phone. Their conference pass
then becomes their “key” to the event. When attendees arrive on
site they simply tap their phone onto one of Fobi’s Smart Tap
devices to check into the event. The attendee’s check-in
information is passed automatically to the Fobi Portal back end and
their Digital ID badge is sent in real time direct to the
attendee’s mobile wallet for a truly contactless entry experience.
The Fobi platform also enables the attendee the same physical
seamless user experience and process with the ability to select the
option of checking in with their wallet pass and receiving a
physical badge via a printer that is connected to the Fobi Smart
Tap check-in device.
Key Benefits of Fobi’s Venue Management System for Conferences
& Events:
- Incredibly scalable and easy to use as it can be up and running
in minutes.
- Offers a better guest experience that reduces check-in times
and streamlines ticketing with tickets sent to the Wallet already
built into attendees’ mobile devices.
- Saves conference organizers money on labor costs, training, and
other registration and sign-in resources.
- Makes conference organization easier with an end-to-end system
that takes care of every step of the registration and event /
session check-ins.
- Conference organizers gain a deeper view of their attendees and
event success by providing real-time analytics such as check-in
times, guest demographics, and event-specific analytics such as
which booths they visited, or which sessions they attended.
- Personalization and Segmentation key in providing customized
messaging to attendees that can be pushed out at any time directly
to the attendees’ lock screens on their phones.
- Provides new line revenues through sponsorship and engagement
opportunities.
Fobi CEO Rob Anson stated: “With the size and
scope of the global trade show industry we see this as a very
lucrative financial opportunity. Fobi will benefit from event
licenses as well as generate revenue from the issuance of each and
every pass that is issued to attendees. Our professional and
managed event services will play a significant element in the
rollout for these large scale events and I think it will be very
interesting to witness the various strategies unfold as to how the
event organizers will choose to leverage the vast capabilities that
we bring in regards to selling new sponsorships as well as building
execution strategies for pre, during and post-event
engagement.”
