C-star x GRID: The winner is …​​​​​

Dr. Matthew Wang who come from Retail Connect was honored with the award. He now has the opportunity to give a presentation at EuroShop.

Retail Connect is basically a loyalty-system for customers in shopping center – with positive side-effects beyond loyalty. Customer can scan the specifically tagged QR-code at their receipt and – while cloud computing is calculating the consumption – add loyalty-points after every purchase in real time. The data performance allows effective cross-store promotion and offers an accurate knowledge of store transaction which serves as the revenue-rent basis for the landlord of shopping malls.
