StarHub takes Telecommunication Case Study of the Year at SBR's Asian Business Case Studies Awards

The telco relied on its geomobility capabilities to provide insights for NHB’s future marketing endeavours.

For the 2019 edition of the Singapore Night Festival, the National Heritage Board decided that it was time to trial other sources of data so as to gather better insights for its signature arts and cultural festival in the vibrant Bras Basah.Bugis district.

For over a decade, the NHB has been using face-to-face surveys to obtain audience insights about the Night Festival. Through SmartHub, StarHub’s analytics division, NHB gained insights on visitor segment profiles and geomobility behaviours of SNF attendees.

“We provided NHB with a simple and accurate means to counting footfall across festival zones, to corroborate existing methods of visitorship counting. Due consideration was also given to differentiate between actual attendees with longer dwell times and passers-by transiting through the zones, without further investment in hardware for NHB,” said Kelly Yoong, Head of SmartHub at StarHub.

The core of SmartHub’s geomobility capabilities lies in its Grid360 data product, which analyses anonymised mobility metadata to infer islandwide footfall coverage. With this, SmartHub enabled NHB to draw richer insights about festival attendees, which include broad dwell trends of festival attendee segments, their visit patterns across our festival dates and mobility patterns across our physical grounds, modes of arrival and departure, as well as key demographics

“These data, especially when augmented with one another, provided NHB with a rich portrait of our current festival attendees and a more accurate profile of them,” noted David Chew, Deputy Director for Festivals and Precinct Development at NHB.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
