Fobi Signs CheckVax™ Deal With the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for Men’s and Women’s NCAA Basketball Games
November 10 2021 - 5:00AM
Fobi AI Inc. Inc. (FOBI:TSXV FOBIF:OTCQB) (the
“Company” or “Fobi”), a leader in providing real-time data
analytics through artificial intelligence to drive customer
activation and engagement, is pleased to announce the Company has
entered into an Agreement with the University of Nevada, Las Vegas
(UNLV) to provide Fobi’s CheckVax™ proof of vaccination solution.
CheckVax™ will be utilized to improve the customer experience by
speeding up entry and to keep fans, student-athletes, and staff
safe at all Men’s & Women’s basketball games at UNLV for this
coming season. The season kicks off with the first Men’s game on
Wednesday, November 10th. Fobi will earn revenue on this deal
through an initial setup fee and monthly Wallet pass license fees.
The Thomas Mack Center, home to Nevada men's and women's
basketball, has a capacity of 19,522, so UNLV has a clear need for
a proof of vaccination solution that can enable them to keep their
fans, student-athletes, and staff safe and speed up entry for the
fans who will be attending the games.
The UNLV men's basketball program has a rich history as one of
college basketball's premier programs. UNLV has played in the NCAA
tournament 20 times, made 10 Sweet 16 appearances, four Final Four
showings, and won the national title in 1990.
UNLV also has a long and impressive history of success over its
47 seasons of competition in women’s basketball. The Lady Rebels
have recorded eight trips to the NCAA Tournament and have advanced
to the Regional Semifinals once (1989).
Michael Newcomb, Senior Associate Athletic Director
at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas
stated: “We have been so impressed with Fobi’s CheckVax™ solution
and how it will improve the attendee experience at our games. It’s
easy to use, it can handle people coming from different regions and
the customer service from Fobi has been excellent. We’re excited to
kick this off on Wednesday.”
UNLV chose Fobi’s CheckVax™ solution over other solutions for
two key reasons. The first is that CheckVax™ is easy to use for
users and requires less staffing and resources for manual
verifications from UNLV. The second and most important reason is
that CheckVax™ can verify vaccination and Covid test results across
multiple jurisdictions and regions in advance, speeding up attendee
access to the venue which creates a far superior customer
experience and increases revenue, as fans stuck in a lineup outside
can’t spend their money in the venue. This multi-jurisdiction and
multi-region pre-verification is something that other solutions are
just not able to do.
Fobi CEO Rob Anson stated: “We are very excited
to sign this deal with UNLV, one of the premier College Athletic
programs in the US. This goes to show that CheckVax™ is the premier
digital proof of vaccination and Covid test solution available on
the market today.”
The agreement with UNLV follows on the announcement of the deal
for CheckVax™ with the University of Nevada, Reno last week. Fobi
is seeing increased interest in the CheckVax™ solution from various
organizations who are looking to adhere to vaccination mandates and
keep their various stakeholders safe, ranging from sports teams and
venues to restaurants and other hospitality companies, and also
from corporations who are looking to get their employees back into
the office safely.
