    As we seek ways to fulfill our mission of enabling Sensational Event Experiences for sports and live events customers, we look to partner with similarly-minded technology companies serving this audience. Hop Robotics shares our vision of a great fan experience and has developed a robotic beer dispenser that is efficient, innovative, and fun for fans. We are excited to partner with them by pairing Wicket's facial authentication solution with their robotic dispenser to simplify the checkout process. #innovation #fanexperience #facialpayments #robotics

    MGMT Boston | Top Boston Startups | Up & Coming Operators

    🏈🏌♂️ 🎾 Wicket is building advanced facial recognition software technology to make the live event experience better 🎾 🏌♀️ 🏈 It's W7 / Q3 / 2024 & this week in our MGMT Boston startup series we’ve got Wicket, a growth stage changing the stadium experience so fans can get to their seats faster, enjoy themselves, and stadiums get to improve their operational rigor too. That’s a win-win. The Founders of Wicket owned a portfolio of sports media & marketing products through a prior business called ISM Connect. When COVID hit, they were approached by the Cleveland Browns (and their Dawg Pound) with an opportunity to help get fans back into the stadium safely within proper social distancing guidelines. Wicket had a compelling value proposition, customer momentum, and became a standalone startup to allow safe access for patrons who didn’t have to take out their phones and talk to a ticket taker. Then a funny thing happened. Things were flowing faster. The convenience factor was unmistakable. The North America live sports market is due to reach $20B by 2028 and the overall live events market is $300B+ growing to $600B+ over that same time frame. Wicket’s technology is getting fans into stadiums 4x faster, allowing stadiums to sell more concessions, and reduce their operational overhead all in the same breath. Data shows that every Wicket ticketing lane saves $8,000 in annual infrastructure costs. Concession revenue from Wicket run stadiums is showing a 170% ROI in their first year. Some stadiums are already operating 25-30 Wicket lanes. You do the math! Someone call Bob Kraft! Wicket supports 30+ teams across major league sports, went live with the U.S. Open for the USGA at Pinehurst, and the Australian (Tennis) Open down in Oz. Even Salesforce’s Dreamforce conference is using Wicket. In 2024 Wicket has grown to 40 team members and they’re looking to add another 15 team members globally by the end of the year. Headquartered in Cambridge, their main presence is split between Doylestown, PA and Cambridge (in the CIC). They are led by Alastair Partington, Jeff Boehm, Rob Seaner, Ryan Owen, Glenn Borgmann, Samson Timoner, and Jeffrey Josephson At the end of June Wicket has exceeded 2023’s entire revenue figure (which was already a seven figure year). This coming pre-season Wicket will be used in every NFL stadium. So far…every Wicket stadium customer has continued to expand their use case. Operators to Know: -Bob Banks, VP Engineering -Kelly Bucey, Technical Product Manager -Tamara Camacho, Marketing Manager -Jason Meeks, Director of Product Marketing -Brad Soricelli, Security Director -Adam Spaulding, Head of Product -Samson Timoner, Head of Computer Vision If you're interested in learning more, including the key roles Wicket is hiring for, the full post is linked in the comments!

    How much time do venue organizers spend thinking of ways to create sensational live events for patrons? Probably just as long as it takes their attendees to get through the entry line or pickup their badge - longer than anyone wants to spend in a line. We've cooked up what event organizers are calling one of the smoothest express entry flows in the business, using facial authentication. However, it’s not just making entry lines shorter at stadiums, concerts, and conference check-ins. Here are five use cases for this versatile technology that can enhance guest experiences throughout your venue—and deliver big returns on the investment: https://hubs.ly/Q02K2z0N0 #biometrics #eventtech #stadiumtech #fanexperience
