Abstract

There is provided, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus, system, and method for enabling smart managing of an exhibition, the system including: multiple scan-able tags for multiple products in the exhibition; scanning devices adapted to scan data from the tags; a communications server for enabling collection and communication of scanned data; an exhibition server communicability coupled to the communications server, the exhibition server being coupled to communicably coupled to a system database; and a business intelligence server communicability coupled to the exhibition server, the exhibition server being communicably coupled to a business intelligence database, wherein the business intelligence server is adapted to generate business intelligence data and to communicate selected business intelligence data to a system user.

Claims

1. A system for enabling smart managing of an exhibition, comprising:

multiple scan-able tags for multiple products in the exhibition;

scanning devices adapted to scan data from said tags;

a communications server for enabling collection and communication of scanned data;

an exhibition server communicably coupled to said communications server, said exhibition server being communicably coupled to a system database; and

a business intelligence server communicably coupled to said exhibition server, said exhibition server being communicably coupled to a business intelligence database, wherein said business intelligence server is adapted to generate business intelligence data and to communicate selected business intelligence data to a system user.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence data includes user behavior data.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence data is used to generate exhibitor pricing data.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence data is used to generate exhibition booth pricing data.

5. The system of claim 1, further comprising an internet server for enabling remote interaction with said exhibition server.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein said exhibition server includes a file with instructions to execute commands to enable show management intelligence data generation.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence server includes a file with instructions to execute commands to enable generation of said business intelligence data.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence data is generated in real time.

9. The system of claim 1, wherein said system database includes a memory having stored thereon show related data.

10. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence database includes a memory having stored thereon business intelligence related data.

11. The system of claim 1, wherein said business intelligence server further includes a user dashboard, which is used to enable users to remotely interface with the system.

12. A method for enabling smart exhibition management, comprising:

configuring a show management system to receive data from multiple scanning devices;

processing the received data from said scanning devices, according to selected criteria, to derive relevant business intelligence data; and

sending the derived business intelligence data to system users to facilitate show related decisions.

13. The method of claim 12, comprising running a set of instructions to generate meaningful business intelligence data based on data selected from the set comprising show data, product data, user behavior, sales data and/other relevant data sources.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein said system runs a set of instructions to generate meaningful business intelligence data substantially in real time.

15. A trade show management system integrating business intelligence know-how, comprising:

multiple scan-able tags for multiple products in the trade show;

scanning devices adapted to scan data from said tags;

an exhibition server communicably coupled to a business intelligence server, said exhibition server being communicably coupled to a business intelligence database, wherein said business intelligence server is adapted to generate exhibition related business intelligence data and to communicate selected business intelligence data to a system user.

16. The system of claim 15, wherein said business intelligence data is generated substantially in real time.
