Adapting to digital expectations

Conventions and exhibitions provide people and businesses with a prime opportunity to meet, exchange ideas, be exposed to new interests, and expand their networks. Of course, getting these events set up, keeping them running smoothly, and allowing attendees to focus on learning and participating is a substantial challenge. This is where organizations such as SingEx come in.

For the past 20 years, SingEx has played a leading role in the development of the MICE industry in the Singapore and Asia-Pacific markets. As SingEx continues to drive efficiencies and develop new go-to-market strategies, its digital transformation journey will accelerate the group’s growth potential in the global MICE market and foster best-in-class sales behavior.

Today, the SingEx Group has 270 employees, supported by regional offices in China, India and Indonesia. Its Venue Business specializes in the management of Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) facilities and has been managing the Singapore EXPO Convention and Exhibition Centre since 1999, and its convention wing, MAX Atria, since 2012. The venues host more than 600 events and attract over six million visitors annually.

Its Events Business owns, develops and manages a series of new-to-market trade exhibitions and conferences in Singapore and key emerging markets, backed by a portfolio of award-winning trade conferences and exhibitions such as the world’s largest Singapore FinTech Festival and Industrial Transformation Asia-Pacific – A HANNOVER MESSE event.

Salesforce brings the sales team closer to its customers

As it prepared to launch this initiative, SingEx selected Capgemini as its partner for the transformation of its customer relationship and sales management processes. Working hand-in-hand with stakeholders at SingEx, Capgemini’s design team conducted in-depth user research and a series of workshops that helped clarify the most critical transformation objectives and requirements. Following this, a collaborative team that included a variety of additional partners developed a Salesforce-based CRM system that could be integrated into SingEx’s marketing, registration and digital channels.

Collaborative success

The solution, which is built and hosted on Salesforce’s Sales Cloud, provides sales users with an enhanced view of the customer by capturing leads, improving account and opportunity management, and enhancing sales forecasting, among a variety of other capabilities. Since the rollout in August 2018, SingEx has expanded its access to real-time sales data, making its business decisions faster and better informed. Capgemini additionally supported SingEx’s digital and technology teams through the implementation of a cultural shift that has made it easier for employees to adopt new digital ways of working. The change management initiatives have ensured that SingEx employees have the tools and knowledge required to operate more effectively.
