The LBX Collective

The LBX Collective Welcomes Birthday University and The Experience Academy to Its Family

The LBX CollectivePHOENIX, March 28, 2024 – The LBX Collective is thrilled to announce the acquisition of two iconic industry conferences: Birthday University and The Experience Academy. This strategic move marks a significant milestone in The LBX Collective's journey, further solidifying their position as innovators and thought leaders in the location-based entertainment sector.

DALLAS, TEXAS, March 25, 2024: Embed, the ultimate cloud-based, cashless solutions provider for the amusement, entertainment, and leisure industries showcased its Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions and other breakthrough innovations at the Amusement Expo International (AEI) from 20-21 March, emphasising on the importance of reliability when it comes to choosing a solutions provider to future-proof your business.

Embed is known to partner with global tech giants, maximising their groundbreaking technology to adapt it for the family entertainment sector. The award-winning Mobile Wallet is still the only Apple and Google-certified FEC solution in the industry since its launch in 2019; the only non-banking, non-finance, non-healthcare solution approved to sit in a consumer’s mobile wallet (not a mobile app that requires a download and ongoing maintenance). And, STATS, the business intelligence dashboard jointly developed with Amazon Web Services.

“Fresh from The DEAL Show in Dubai, AEI has been another amazing show and we’re privileged to keep our ear to the ground and stay close to our customers – the members of the Embed family – friends, and partners in the industry, especially at a time when system reliability is a hot topic in the industry,” shares Renee Welsh, CEO at Embed. “We are in a strategic position to respond to the industry’s need for reliable tech partners they can trust; we’re a solutions provider that partners with Amazon Web Services (AWS) for their data centres and tech development. Our confidence comes from knowing that we partner with the best. AWS tech is reliable enough for NASA, Formula 1, the US Defence, Netflix (with 260M subscribers), and Facebook (with 3B subscribers), then we can guarantee that the Embed family of FECs are in good hands!”

Speaking further about their SaaS solutions, CTO Andy Welsh comments on how a system’s reliability is as crucial as the data centres and tech partners running it: “The Embed system architecture is built to work even during network outages. It’s time to make the switch and upgrade to the Embed system when your current system is letting you and your guests down.”

“It’s at times like these, when other cashless players are plagued with data centre issues that result in mass outages amongst their FEC customers during busy weekend hours that Embed’s cutting-edge reliability is crystal clear!” adds Sara Paz, CMO and Embed Success Squad™ Transformation Guru.

The Embed Success Squad™ was introduced at IAAPA Orlando 2023 as the company’s testament to customer-centricity and commitment to their customers’ business growth and success. The dedicated team of consultants, champions, and trainers – a mix of growth gurus, SaaS experts, and payment specialists help the Embed family experience the transformational growth SaaS solutions drive.

“With 1-year FREE Mobile Wallet and 3-months FREE STATS subscriptions, complimentary payment gateway cost-saving analysis, free best practice training from the industry’s best FECs, free marketing kits and/or complimentary printed assets that cover the entire customer journey in an FEC, and the Embed GoTrain™ – all these are done to drive consumer uptake of Mobile Wallet,” adds Paz.


Here are the other highlights of the show:

Major Awards

In addition to this major win, Embed also won the Best Booth Design for its new modular and sustainable build: “This is such a huge win for us! Since using this at IAAPA Orlando 2023, this booth is a testament to our efforts towards sustainability - from digital brochures and collaterals to minimise our carbon footprint and booth modular for the flexibility to switch booth size, scale, and designs without wasting resources,” says Kathleen Goy, Global Head of Events and Marketing Chief of Staff.
