Mindshare has announced a strategic partnership with Footmarks to bring its beacon-powered mobile experiences and analytics to the Asia-Pacific region. The alliance will be managed out of Mindshare Singapore's 'Discovery' unit as it continues to bring innovative connected experiences to its growing list of clients.

Footmarks is the leading enterprise awareness platform provider focused on delivering creative and respectful experiences that drive deep brand and customer value. Powered by Bluetooth Smart, Footmarks' SmartConnect platform is an experience-based analytics solution delivering meaningful and personalised value through secure end-to-end beacon technology. Footmarks end-to-end solution includes cutting-edge Bluetooth low-energy beacons, the world's only cross-platform SDK suite, and a complete cloud-based service offering that allows partners and clients to build rich experiences, manage their beacon network remotely, and capture rich analytics and insights.

The partnership will empower MindShare Singapore clients to deliver all new value-added content and personalized experiences throughout malls, retail stores, and venues across the region.

Christopher Smith, Head of Mindshare Discovery, commented, “There is a growing demand from brands and consumers alike to create deeper, more personal engagement in retail, and we strongly believe beacons are becoming a vital link in delivering against that demand. Beacons have all sorts of application opportunities for our clients across a wide range of sectors, so we are excited to explore the possibilities and help our clients continue to innovate and create deeper engagement with their customers.”

Todd Paris, President of Footmarks, said, “Having worked in advertising throughout Asia for many years, I know MindShare and the Asia Pacific Region are always at the leading edge of market and media innovation.  I'm excited to see the partnership kick off and look forward to the brand and client impact we will have in the coming month and years.”
