Regulatory News:
beaconsmind AG (ISIN: CH0451123589 - Ticker: MLBMD), a leading
SaaS provider in the field of Location-Based Marketing (LBM) &
Analytics, continues to expand its strong position in the Middle
East. The company has launched a comprehensive collaboration with
Business Incubators and Accelerators Company (BIAC) in Saudi Arabia
(KSA), covering areas such as tourism, culture, entertainment and
smart city. BIAC is a state-owned subsidiary of the Saudi
Technology Development and Investment Company (TAQNIA), which in
turn is wholly owned by the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia,
Public Investment Fund (PIF). Through the cooperation, beaconsmind
supports Saudi Arabia in the implementation of the "Vision 2030".
Through the cooperation with BIAC, beaconsmind now also opens up
the government sector and significantly expands its business
activities.
At the start of the cooperation it is planned to implement
beaconsmind's innovative LBM solutions in various governmental and
retail establishments in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. These
include, for example, museums, parks, shopping centres, retail
outlets, tourist attractions and hotels. The beaconsmind suite
provides users with completely new communication and information
channels. Visitors can use apps as travel guides and receive among
other things, location-based information in real time via push
notifications about events in their vicinity or further information
about exhibits in museums. Based on the input of personal
preferences, users are provided with individual offers for
restaurants, galleries or museums. Visits can be planned in advance
and routes optimised. Thanks to the beaconsmind solution, users are
always well informed and can get the most out of their visit.
Customer journey and customer experience are thus significantly
improved. In addition, the beaconsmind suite will also be used in
shopping centres and selected shops of the stationary trade.
Businesses will be able to interact with users directly at the
point of sale and provide them with customised offers, resulting in
higher sales and increased customer loyalty and satisfaction. Saudi
Arabia plans to increase the number of foreign tourists to 100
million by 2030. The tourism sector's share of the gross domestic
product is to be increased from around 3 per cent today to 10 per
cent.
Max Weiland, CEO of beaconsmind: "The cooperation with the
Kingdom Saudi Arabia is another important milestone in our
company's history. We are thus tapping into the government sector
and significantly expanding our business activities. In the future,
our solutions will also function as a source of information with
which we turn users' visits into unique experiences. With our
solutions, the tourism industry, hotels, retailers and many more
segments can further improve customer service and respond directly
to customer wishes and needs. This leads to higher revisit rates
and user satisfaction. Riyadh is just the beginning. We see
significant potential to expand our collaboration beyond Riyadh and
look forward to the cooperation and exciting tasks ahead."
The Saudi Economy is opening up massively to international
companies and global investors as part of „Vision 2030“.
Diversification of the economy is an important objective of „Vision
2030“, and tourism is part of the sectorial priorities. The KSA
tourism sector offers an unparralled opportunity thanks to the rich
and diverse Historical, Cultural and UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Digital can play an important role in improving the experience of
tourists. The LBM solutions of beaconsmind have a significant
potential in that regards in KSA.
