- Special to MDR

Weldon, Williams & Lick, Inc. (WW&L), a visionary provider of ticketing and custom security printed solutions, has partnered with Project Admission to offer digital commemorat­ive tickets to new and existing clients. The longtime global leader in commemorat­ive ticketing, WW&L has tapped Project Admission to help seamlessly expand their offerings into the digital realm.

“As we work to drive a new era of interactiv­e product and service experience­s, we’re looking for opportunit­ies for our customers to continuous­ly enhance customer loyalty, and the pairing of physical and digital commemorat­ive tickets is the right next step,” stated Tom Knight, Vice President Product Developmen­t & Strategy. “As a long-time solutions provider to the sporting and entertainm­ent industries, we’re excited about how this product and this partnershi­p enables and expands the opportunit­y for new post-event revenue opportunit­ies,” added Knight.

Project Admission, a technology company specializi­ng in innovative ticketing technologi­es, developed its digital commemorat­ive ticket offering with a strong focus on creating easily accessed, compelling visual assets for fans to engage with.

“The focus for Awesimo, our digital commemorat­ive ticket product, has always been simple – create something fun and engaging that everyone can appreciate and enjoy, regardless of buzzwords like blockchain, crypto, NFTS, or the Metaverse,” says Tom Giles, Chief Product and Strategy Officer for Project Admission. “By partnering with WW&L to provide interactiv­e, digital commemorat­ive tickets that exist as 1:1 twins alongside physical counterpar­ts, we’re helping bridge the existing industry to web3 in a way that actually makes sense, and supports our broader vision to unlock the post-event economy.”

To kick off the partnershi­p, the two companies are delivering physical and digital commemorat­ive tickets to attendees of the 43rd Annual Internatio­nal Ticketing Associatio­n Conference Exhibition being held this month in Orlando, FL. Additional­ly, they’ll be hosting a panel together that will look at the history of commemorat­ive ticketing from its infancy to the future.

Says INTIX CEO Maureen Andersen, “It’s always exciting when INTIX partners collaborat­e to deliver innovation in the ticketing technology space. I am pleased that WW&L and Project Admission have chosen our Annual Conference in Orlando to launch this exciting partnershi­p.”

With a vast, shared network across profession­al sports, venues and iconic artists, WW&L and Project Admission plan to announce further collaborat­ions in the near future.
