Events and Trade Fairs

At events and in stores, attention is limited. Teams want to welcome people, explain offers, and answer questions, but they cannot be everywhere at once.

An AI avatar creates an additional interactive point of contact. It starts conversations, responds to individual interests, and helps people take the next step. This works for a single day at a trade fair as well as for a permanent installation in a store, showroom, or visitor center.

Turn a display into an active conversation

Screens and kiosks often remain passive. An avatar can instead greet people directly and ask how it can help.

Visitors and customers receive quick guidance even when every employee is already assisting someone else.

Relieve employees of recurring questions

Events create periods of peak demand. In retail, many simple questions recur throughout the day: Where can I find a product? Which accessory is compatible? Is an offer still available? Who can provide specialist advice?

The avatar can reliably provide this initial guidance. It does not replace personal service. Instead, it handles common questions and recognizes when expertise, a decision, or human support is required. This gives employees more time for complex requests and personal conversations.

Temporary at events or permanently on site

For a trade fair, content can be tailored to the program, presentations, and campaigns. For a permanent in-store installation, product information, offers, locations, and processes must be kept up to date using maintained sources.

The environment matters as well. Screen position, noise, accessibility, available space, and network connectivity all affect the experience. Interactions should be easy to start, quick to complete, and transferable to a person at any time.

Capture event leads with context

At trade fairs, the avatar can capture not only contact details but also the reason for a visitor's interest, provided clear consent has been given. It can ask about the relevant product, challenge, industry, and preferred next step.

Follow-up can therefore begin while the visitor is still at the booth. The same avatar can answer questions and provide additional resources on a landing page before or after the event.

Conclusion

An AI avatar turns a display into an available point of contact. At events, it engages visitors and supports lead qualification. As a permanent retail installation, it welcomes customers, provides guidance, and answers recurring questions.

The result is reliable on-site service and more time for employees to focus on the requests where personal experience makes the greatest difference.
