Artists are touring and music fans around the country are coming together once again to enjoy shows in-person. However, even live events still rely on digital technology. Mobile charging solutions are a great way to ensure that attendees can access all of your event’s amenities and elevate guest experience.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><b><span>Live Events Require Digital Technology</span></b></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>In <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1202394/changes-to-live-music-events-post-pandemic-worldwide/" style="color:rgb(45, 180, 45);">a recent survey</a> of live music industry experts, 84.2% cited that they expect the majority of events will be cashless going forward. In order to attend <a href="https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/05/no-covid-19-cases-found-after-well-controlled-indoor-concert" style="color:rgb(45, 180, 45);">an indoor concert in Spain</a>, attendees even had to download not just one, but two mobile apps. One was for contact tracing, and another was “to receive their COVID-19 test results, complete health questionnaires before and 10 days after the event and fill out a satisfaction survey.” The event was successful, and no attendees contracted COVID-19, but it wouldn’t have been possible without mobile devices.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>With touchless pay for concessions, digital QR tickets that need to be scanned for entry, and more phone-reliant amenities, attendees need to be able to use their phones at concerts and festivals more than ever before.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><b><span>The Power of Mobile Charging</span></b></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>So, what happens if a fan’s phone is dead?

Fans can simply head over to the charging station and power up their devices. There are countless benefits to mobile charging for both event hosts and guests. Concert-goes will love the peace of mind knowing they never have to worry about a dead battery during their night out. From mobile ticketing to cashless purchasing, to taking photos and videos, to calling their uber home, guests will be able to rely on their mobile device.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>As an event host, guest satisfaction is everything. Happy guests will write positive reviews and spread the word on social media. If your event has a VIP area with bonus amenities for a higher-priced ticket, a charging station is a great draw.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><i><span>&nbsp;</span></i></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>Plus, you can even collect usage analytics to learn more about attendees. Power Up’s Charging Tables contain a sensor that will passively collect data from guest’s phones to measure traffic and generate metrics. You’ll gain amazing insights into your event demographics including age, gender, household income, heritage, and interests. From this information, you can better understand your audience––and make your next event even more successful.</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><b><span>Rent A Charging Table for Your Next Event</span></b></p><p style="text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><span>Planning your next live music event?

Central to Light City is the BGE Light Art Walk along Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, featuring more than 50 attractions including illuminated sculptures, projections, interactive technologies, performances, concerts, food vendors and a children’s area. During the day, Light City’s innovation conferences bring together innovators and thought leaders across key industries to explore ways to power social change. To support the festivals needs, POWER UP™ (formerly NV3 Technologies) provided charging through Charging Tables and a Charging trailer at the event. POWER UP™ charging stations were spread strategically around the event so visitors could find several spots to power their phones despite the large outdoor event space, which spanned several neighborhoods. </div></div></div>

The Charging Tables and Trailer can run off of a wall outlet or a generator, and the Charging Tables can also run off of an internal battery, which is an additional option offered for purchase. The Charging Stations were sponsored by a local company, and POWER UP™ provided branding services for both the table and the trailer. Branding includes high quality vinyl wraps on the exterior of the units, as well as media content where available. The Charging stations were an excellent way for people to recharge their dead phones after the race, and a great way for the sponsor partner to have attendees see their brand.</div></div>

Spectators used the high quality, innovative charging tables to stay connected and to share all the great moments from the race. This is POWER UP's third contract with The Maryland Jockey Club. In 2016, POWER UP customized several high-top charging tables that were used in the owner's tent at the second race of the Triple Crown. POWER UP also developed 10 customized tables for Laurel Race Track that incorporate 10 inch screens and led lighting. Inside of the 10x20 charging lounge, Preakness attendees will be able to purchase their own personal pocket charger or have access to charge their devices using POWER UP's 50 high-top tables throughout the venue. Each table has a tempered glass top, three standard electric outlets for laptops, six USB ports and nine LED charging cables. Ryan E. Doak, Co-founder, POWER UP, said &quot;We're excited to be working with The Maryland Jockey Club again and bringing technology that will enable Preakness attendees to stay connected during the moments that matter. Preakness is a prime example of how this innovative solution can be used by guests who depend on a fully charged device at large, all-day events.&quot; Before the 2017 race, Joe Blaylock, Director of IT, The Maryland Jockey Club, said &quot;We cannot wait to roll out 50 new high-top tables and have the charging tent for our infield ticket holders this year. The tables were such a hit in at last year's Preakness that we knew had to rent more so that more guests could keep their devices fully-charged throughout the day.&quot; </div></div></div>
