Just like you, your kiosks have had a busy year. And if you happen to be a retailer, a restaurant owner, a hotel operator or a leisure venue, your kiosks and your staff will be ending the year working harder than ever through the peak festive season. Unlike people, machines don’t need a break to [...]
Self-service kiosks are hardly the new kids on the business tech block anymore. But you wouldn’t know that by looking at the market growth forecasts.

Anyone who has tried to get an appointment with their GP recently knows that health services aren’t always running at their smoothest right now. The reasons are many and complex, and certainly far beyond the scope of this blog. But there is one strand we can tug on a little - the digitisation of healthcare. [...]
