Global attraction software specialists n-gage.io have announced their attendance and sponsorship of the AZA Mid-Year Conference, taking place from 24th to 29th March in Palm Springs, California.
The AZA Mid-Year Meeting is a highly anticipated event in the US calendar for zoos and aquariums. The 2025 conference will also feature a dedicated Zoo Day, hosted by current n-gage.io clients, The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens.
With over a thousand delegates representing zoos and aquariums from across North America, n-gage.io will participate as both an exhibitor and a sponsor. They plan to showcase their powerful attraction management software and highly adaptable mobile app, designed for guests at wildlife parks, safari parks, aquariums, and zoos.
Following a successful presence at the AZA Annual Conference in Calgary, Canada, last year, the company is eager to reintroduce its software to the North American market and demonstrate its extensive features tailored for the wildlife sector. As part of their partnership, n-gage.io is collaborating with The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens to adapt their existing app content for participating delegates, encouraging downloads for the 27th March Zoo Day experience.
Comprehensive Platform and Customisable App
n-gage.io's guest mobile app solutions are establishing a strong reputation as an industry game-changer. This recognition stems from the software's ability to manage the highly customisable mobile guest app, enhance the guest experience, generate valuable insights, and boost revenue.
The platform is notable for its diverse range of features, specifically designed to address the unique needs of the zoo and wildlife sector. Modules include:
- Species adoption management
- Interactive trail building
- Quiz learning
- Gamification
- Fundraising
These features are designed to promote guest engagement and revenue growth, while also emphasising conservation education. The back-office operator system provides real-time insights into app usage and market-leading data, enabling clients to plan zoo operations and deliver personalised experiences based on visitor behaviour.
Targeting the North American Market
n-gage.io, a sponsor of the AZA Mid-Year Meeting at the Palm Springs Convention Centre, will be exhibiting at booth #23. The team will conduct regular demonstrations of the operator platform software and the highly customisable guest mobile app.
We’re delighted to be showcasing our innovative software and mobile app for zoos, wildlife parks and aquariums at the AZA Mid-Year Meeting in Palm Springs, and looking forward to joining our existing clients, The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens, to support their Zoo Day as part of the conference. We’re continuing to develop the software with the specific needs of the sector in mind and are looking forward to meeting the Zoo and Aquarium community from across North America.
Bryan Hoare further highlighted the importance of engaging with US-based zoos and aquariums to continue innovating in the market and introducing the software and app to potential new customers.
It’s a great opportunity to network with attendees and find out more about their specific needs to ensure our software and app meets market demand, as it continues to provide operations, marketing and guest management teams with the tools and insights they need to maximise performance.
It’s important to us to experience first-hand where digital technology can make a difference to the zoo mission. We spend a lot of time talking to our existing client base and in essence it’s them that shaping the future direction of our product.
Flexible Solutions for All Attractions
While specifically tailored for the wildlife sector, n-gage.io's software and guest app solution is highly customisable, making it suitable for various types of attractions. This includes museums, heritage sites, holiday parks, and resorts, supporting their digital transformation.
Our software and guest app solution isn’t just designed for the wildlife sector, as due to the highly customizable nature of both the back office and mobile app, we help all types of attractions with digital transformation, from museums and heritage sites to holiday parks and resorts.
n-gage.io applies the same approach across all client markets, based on the belief that Software as a Service (SaaS) does not have to be a one-size-fits-all solution with limited customisation.
