Customers now demand more. Exceed their expectations.
Brands with superior customer experience generate 5.7 times more revenue than their competitors. But many companies struggle to connect with customers due to siloed data and technology. One of the keys to building lasting loyalty is with centralized data and an aligned vision throughout your organization.
Understanding how customers move through both your physical and virtual spaces can be the key to creating more personal, and meaningful, touch points. With connected technologies like Microsoft Azure and Dynamics 365, companies can create smart venues for consumers and employees, helping to quickly increase revenue per unit and reduce operational expenses—impacting your bottom line in weeks, not months.

Smart venues: How data transforms your industry
Smart technology to advance your business
Put your customer at the center with personalized interactions that delight and surprise using machine learning insights. Here are three key elements for your smart venue:
Sustainable operations
Building operations can create waste and unnecessary cost with systems that aren’t optimized to lower energy consumption or predict repairs. Azure Analytics Services and IoT technology can create a safer, healthier environment for customers and staff—helping reduce costs through centralized functions, analytics to monitor, predict and manage equipment status, waste removal and climate control.
Identity and analytics
Knowing when and how to connect with customers depends not only on having data, but uncovering insights—what and why consumers are buying can be key to knowing what offers to suggest. Curated data and analytics using Microsoft’s Customer Experience Platform, Azure and Power BI helps put the power of business intelligence in your hands, providing actionable insights for lasting ROI.
Connected digital twin
Managing a physical venue with multiple vendors, each using separate data systems, requires a single source to centralize information and derive insights. Improve asset management and venue performance by building a data-rich virtual model, with real-time spatial insights, on Azure Digital Twins.
“To be the first theme park across Europe to be built from scratch in nearly 30 years, we need to work with the best and they don’t come much bigger or better than PwC. We are delighted to welcome them as a partner invested in the project.”
Leading developer builds “Top 10” smart district to reimagine experiences
Powered by technology and fueled by analytics, PwC and Microsoft are helping to create a new smart community to provide innovative experiences for residents, businesses and visitors. This mixed-use development connects housing, offices, entertainment venues and outdoor spaces using Microsoft Azure services and Dynamics 365 to collect data and turn them into actionable insights. A 3D digital twin of the entire development provides a single source for district-wide systems like waste management and parking, with spatial context and live data captured from movement, occupancy and system activity. By leveraging these data insights, the district can drive operational efficiencies while creating premium experiences for the customers who work, live and play there.
