In this episode of Spatial Experience Design, host Søren Vasø sits down with Crowd Connected’s CEO, James Cobb, to unpack how indoor positioning systems (IPS) are transforming navigation at large-scale events. They dive into the hidden friction between key attendee moments—lost time, missed meetings, inefficient crowd flow—and how IPS helps remove it. 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.
