Case Studies

    Drumsheds x Broadwick Live

    Challenge: Europe's largest nightclub, 15,000 capacity across four warehouses, no existing Wi-Fi infrastructure to rely on for crowd data.

    Deployment: permanent WYA FlexNet installation across all four warehouses, giving the operations team one live screen for anonymous flow and density across the whole venue.

    “The data is like gold dust.”

    - Chloe Mee, Operations, Broadwick Live

    Into the Woods Festival

    Challenge: 20,000 fans across muddy fields and 4G blackspots, no reliable network to run a multi-language event app or sponsor promotions on.

    Deployment: WYA FlexNet integrated directly into the festival's own event app, working independently of existing power and network infrastructure.

    “The beacons were really cool technology and the team were really easy to work with.”

    - Tom Howell, Founder, Into the Woods Festival

    Festival Republic at Gunnersbury Park

    Challenge: two identical bars, same operator, same layout, same offer - performing very differently, with no way to see why.

    Result: WYA's crowd analytics found a two-to-three times difference in footfall between the two bars, an imbalance that had been invisible without measurement and was costing both the operator and the bar's sponsor real money.

    Vitality 10K x New Balance

    Challenge: proving a sponsor activation delivered more than a turnstile count, in time for the renewal conversation.

    Result: WYA tracked active engagement with the New Balance activation, measuring genuine dwell time and product interest rather than estimated footfall - turning the sponsor conversation from a guess into evidence.

    Founders Forum x Carolyn Dawson

    Challenge: a large-scale conference where delegates needed to network efficiently and the operations team needed real-time visibility to keep every speaker in the right place at the right time.

    Deployment: WYA operated across Founders Forum Global, supporting live delegate networking and giving the operations team real-time location visibility to coordinate speakers, plus post-event analysis for organisers and sponsors.

    “WYA operated flawlessly at Founders Forum Global. Our delegates were able to network more effectively and the operations team could make sure all speakers were in the right place at the right time. Their post event analysis has given us and our sponsors real data driven insights to take forward to our next events. WYA are not just a tech provider - they are a genuine event partner. I would highly recommend WYA for any conference organiser or other large scale event.”
