Emerging trends and technology such as mobile ticketing, RFID and NFC (Near Field Communications) are challenging the current global ticketing ecosystem. Integrated ticketing, access control and CRM systems like those employed by FIFA are emerging as the next generation solution for venues, sports teams, entertainers and all event and entertainment interests.
IATACA has been established to represent the interests of the entire ticketing ecosystem. Issues of ticket scalping and the secondary market continue to plague the industry. IATACA will address these trends toward the development of accepted standardization and best practices.
"There is a clear and consistent need for global representation of the ticketing ecosystem. IATACA has been established to support the industry in these needs. Enterprise class technology tools are being developed to provide access to information on demand. The industry is experiencing great changes and challenges that will require unity and focus on a truly global level.
