The cross-departmental, effective marketing campaign is based on the concept of gamification: in the multi-channel campaign, passengers can participate in a treasure hunt “Hashtag Hunting” at the airport. Hints for the solution are placed at strategic points such as shopping centers. The implemented application enables large amounts of structured and unstructured data to be managed and processed to provide passengers with personalized content at multiple touchpoints. The project is part of a comprehensive digitization program, in which SEA provides the marketing department with state-of-the-art tools to enhance the customer experience.

Fabio Degli Esposti, CIO SEA Milan Airports adds: “In the Greek tragedy, hybris literally means “arrogance”, “pride” or “exclusion”. With regard to the implementation of SAP Hybris Marketing at Milan airports, the project represents an important step on the road to digital transformation and can be associated with “outstanding” and “pride”. The project completes an application system that strengthens our business while being flexible and scalable. With the best digital, mobile-based solutions, Milan’s airports are creating the foundation for effective and modern customer retention.”

This allowed the status to be checked at any time, enabling delivery on time and on budget. The focus was on greater customer loyalty, and the campaign increased average passenger spending.” Rizzante continues: “As we are one of the most important European competence centers for SAP solutions, we can offer innovations based on SAP in almost all areas”.
