From real-time wayfinding to dynamic messaging and movement analytics, the conversation explores what it takes to support truly personalized journeys in complex, high-density environments. Along the way, they touch on event ROI, attendee expectations, and how knowing “where people are” unlocks value for both visitors and organizers.
