Discovery & Research
Stakeholder Workshops
We conducted in-depth workshops with The Centre’s leadership, faculty, and administrative teams to understand key pain points, user personas, and desired outcomes.
Competitor & Benchmark Analysis
Our research included a thorough analysis of competitor websites and global best practices, uncovering opportunities for differentiation and innovation.
User Persona Development
With input from the workshop, we identified several key groups of users with different needs and goals.
User Journey Mapping
We mapped existing user journeys, identifying friction points and areas where AI and automation could enhance the experience.
Digital Experience Design
User-Centric Navigation
Redesigned the site architecture to ensure key content is accessible within two clicks, prioritising event hosting services and venue details. Intuitive navigation was implemented to enhance user experience and ensure that organisers can quickly find essential information, such as venue specifications, event planning resources, and upcoming events.
User-Centric Design
Website communication determines how content is written to gain most engagement. The workshop output indicates that the primary users of the website are Event Organisers, Event Exhibitors and Visitors. With this knowledge, the website flow is designed to meet different expectations of the target group seamlessly.
Visual Storytelling Approach
Implemented a “poster-effect” design, where each scroll highlights one key message paired with a strong visual, making information digestible and engaging. This approach not only captures user attention but also reinforces The Centre’s brand identity through dynamic storytelling and immersive imagery.
Mobile-First & Responsive Design
Built an adaptive layout that ensures optimal user experience across all devices, from desktops to smartphones. By prioritising mobile responsiveness, users enjoy seamless browsing, quick loading times, and enhanced accessibility, regardless of their device.
XTOPIA developed and integrated Skye, The Centre’s AI-powered virtual assistant, to transform customer engagement. Skye is designed to provide instant, intelligent responses to FAQs, guide users through event planning processes, and streamline customer inquiries.
Contextual & Proactive Engagement
Unlike traditional chatbots, Skye delivers a highly intuitive experience by proactively offering relevant content suggestions based on user behavior, reducing the need for manual searches and improving navigation efficiency.
Lead Generation & Customer Retention
Skye intelligently captures user details, analyses visitor intent, and escalates complex inquiries to human agents when necessary. This seamless transition from AI to human support ensures a high-quality customer experience, fostering trust and increasing lead conversion rates.
Operational Efficiency & Workforce Optimization
Automating routine inquiries and customer interactions significantly reduces staff workload, enabling them to focus on high-value tasks. The AI-driven approach enhances response time, ensuring customers receive timely and accurate assistance without delays.
Interactive Tools for Event Planning
Interactive Floorplan
Developed using SVG and JavaScript technology, allowing users to explore venue layouts seamlessly across multiple devices.
3D Floorplan Integration
A fully immersive tool that enables event organisers to experience venue spaces in a virtual 3D environment. This feature enhances decision-making by providing a realistic visualisation of event setups, reducing on-site planning uncertainties.
Space Recommender
An AI-powered solution that filters venue options based on event type, capacity requirements, and desired amenities. By intelligently matching user preferences, the tool simplifies the venue selection process and ensures optimal space utilisation.
Complex Navigation & Content Overload
The website contained an overwhelming amount of information structured in a deep and multi-layered format. Users struggled to locate key details efficiently, leading to frustration and increased bounce rates.
Ineffective Call-to-Action (CTA) Elements
Essential conversion points, such as booking inquiries and venue information requests, were not prominently placed or optimised for engagement. As a result, potential leads were lost due to unclear user pathways.
Absence of AI-Driven Customer Support
With an increasing volume of inquiries, The Centre required a scalable and intelligent solution to handle frequently asked questions, guide users effectively, and provide real-time assistance without overburdening staff.
