HANS-PETER NÜDLING

CHIEF STRATEGY OFFICER AT POSIFLEX GROUP

EMPOWERING THE SELF-SERVICE ECOSYSTEM

As more organisations take advantage of self-service kiosks as part of a broader
digital and customer experience (CX) strategy, the orchestration of this
strategy is becoming a significant business challenge. Connecting and monitoring
multiple devices, including kiosks, across a digital ecosystem requires
integration. Enabling AI-capabilities within this ecosystem for CX enhancement
adds another layer of complexity. A full solution stack that integrates the
application layer with the digital ecosystem and IoT remote monitoring can help
solve this challenge and empower organizations with greater efficiencies and
stronger performance.




DR BERNARD PARSONS MBE

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AT BECRYPT

SECURING DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION. TRENDS – CHALLENGES – INNOVATION

Interactive kiosks have become an everyday part of our lives from self-service
transactional POS systems through to information points, ticketing systems and
biometric stations. Ongoing software innovation is vital in an age that
continues to demand additional requirements from enhanced security for
resilience and compliance, improved customer experience and more efficient
solution manageability.




PETER THOMPSON

DIRECTOR AT IMAGEHOLDERS

THE SELF-SERVICE REVOLUTION. WHY KIOSKS ARE ONLY PART OF THE SOLUTION

Self-service technology is on the rise everywhere, driven by the machine/human
interface. Multiple vertical markets are harnessing this revolution to deliver
better customer service and drive revenue. But kiosks are only part of the
solution!




NEIL FARR

DIRECTOR AT ACQUIRE DIGITAL

FINDING YOUR WAY THROUGH INTERACTIVITY – USING DIGITAL WAYFINDING SOLUTIONS TO
ENHANCE YOUR CLIENT EXPERIENCES.

With the increasing interest in digital interaction, wayfinding has become a hot
topic for use in retail spaces, smart city, hospital and travel locations. Learn
how the technology can be used beyond the kiosk, and how the kiosk itself can be
used to generate revenue in unexpected ways. Acquire Digital’s rollouts of their
wayfinder solution has given them interesting insights into the technologies,
pitfalls, and unique requirements of a successful digital wayfinding solution.




LYNNE COLGAN

RETAIL BUSINESS CONSULTANT AT NCR

FRICTIONLESS COMMERCE: WINNING IN THE AGE OF NOW

We are moving ever faster forward towards a retail revolution that is combining
physical stores with the digital world.  How do we replace today’s high cost
tactical experience with a fully flexible checkout? How do retailers continue on
their Store Transformation journey towards a future of convenient checkout
options to match shoppers’ needs and desires?  I will explore some examples of
how the revolution is enabled and how we can remove some of our current
roadblocks with solutions that move us towards a better customer experience.

EXCELLENCE AND CUTTING THROUGH THE HYPE.

systems, maximising their return on investment and avoiding the common
pitfalls. WATCH SEMINAR VIDEO




DR. FARHAAN MOHIDEEN

STRATEGIC PRODUCT PLANNER AT INTEL CORPORATION

CITY ENGAGEMENT WITH PUBLIC KIOSKS

The influx of people to cities are increasing demands on infrastructure and
security at levels previously unseen. Major cities across the world are looking
to increase their efficiency and provide an environment that is welcoming, with
public services accessible with ease and private businesses being promoted,
ensuring the public a safer and more pleasurable experience. Public Kiosks are
starting to appear in city streets and there is a growing number of services
being deployed to make the public interaction with the city more efficient.

Intel and their partners are working towards providing solutions to smart
cities. One such solution is the varied services that can be deployed on public
kiosks, which could include surveillance, wayfinding, environmental sensing and
many more. The session showcases how Intel is working with their partner LG MRI
to bring such solutions to life through the Intel® IoT Market Ready Solutions
Program.




DAVID SPRATT

HEAD OF BUSINESS SYSTEMS SALES AT EPSON EUROPE

MAXIMISING USER EXPERIENCE FOR CUSTOMERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS

With the increasing preference for millennials to self-serve, the proliferation
of kiosks offers opportunities to drive efficiencies at the point of service or
transaction. David will explore how the kiosk itself can also be enhanced to
provide the best user experience for both the customer and the service provider.




KRIS BARTEL

VICE PRESIDENT AT ZIVELO

THE SELF-AWARE ENVIRONMENT: A HISTORY OF HOW RESTAURANTS, STORES, HOTELS, AND
SPACES HAVE INTEGRATED DIGITAL INTO THEIR EXPERIENCES AND WHERE IT’S HEADED

Taking the most important aspects from the early days of Retail Innovation at
eBay and deployments of self-order kiosks at one of the world’s largest QSR’s,
Kris Bartel will share key insights into understanding how to deploy public
computing as well as the history and predictions for Artificial Intelligence. 
Come and learn about key tactical steps you can take today to start your journey
to a beautiful customer experience in the future.




ADRIAN THOMPSON

CEO AT IMAGEHOLDERS

RE-EMPOWERING STAFF

With every new wave of technology, there is a perceived fear of machines taking
away jobs. But kiosks can re-empower staff and provide them more opportunities
to provide an exceptional customer journey. Adrian Thompson discusses how kiosks
aren’t just for customers, but for staff too. WATCH SEMINAR VIDEO
