WhiteWater Acquires Mobile Interactivity Designer Apptivations
Richmond, Canada (November 14, 2012) – At a press conference held today at IAAPA Expo 2012, WhiteWater unveiled its newest acquisition, Apptivations LLC. WhiteWater, in partnership with Denise Chapman Weston and Rick Briggs, will put the best that mobile and contemporary technology has to offer in the hands of park guests.
From live action storytelling to fun and/or educational interactive games, the company has created downloadable apps that come to life in real time. These apps engage and entertain guests while creating additional ways to reward and generate additional revenue streams with devices that are already in use by consumers.
Once amusement parks and waterparks become a part of its growing app world, there are many engaging opportunities to sell upgrades, reinforce marketing and create memorable takeaways including photo-imaged comic books and postable social media videos, starring guests.
Putting 30 years of creativity, innovation, imagination and expertise to work, Apptivations has combined hands-on interactives and storytelling to enhance mobile gaming, game-embedded waterpark sliding and “night glow” integrated experiences.
