Infobip and the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team are launching a click-to-WhatsApp conversational assistant at the next race in Monza. Ahead of the race on 7 September, Infobip and Haas have rolled out their new conversational assistant, available via a Click-To-WhatsApp ad integration from Facebook and Instagram. Fans can join exclusive WhatsApp conversations to access interactive quizzes and the chance to win signed race memorabilia.
This is the next step in the partnership between the two organisations, which was launched in May this year. Infobip signed a multi-year partnership with the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, and together they are revolutionising fan engagement, enabling the team to develop deeper connections with fans worldwide. Infobip’s technology is powering a new era of digital engagement, delivering real-time, personalised experiences that bring fans closer to the action.
”Our fans are the heartbeat of the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. This AI-powered platform doesn’t just bring them closer to the action – it creates a two-way conversation that helps us understand and serve our global community better. Starting at Monza, fans worldwide will experience a new level of engagement that reflects our commitment to innovation both on and off the track,” said Mark Morrell, MoneyGram Haas F1 Team’s Director of Marketing.
”Working with the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team to pioneer conversational experiences showcases how advanced messaging technology can transform sports engagement. In similar cases, this technology has been able to increase fan engagement several-fold, offering a memorable fan experience. Our platform’s ability to deliver rich, interactive experiences at scale makes every fan interaction meaningful, whether they’re trackside at Monza or watching from anywhere in the world,” added Ivan Ostojić, Chief Business Officer at Infobip.
Burra was created as a platform for consolidating IT services companies in Southeast Europe, with a commercial focus on Western Europe and the United States. Its first members, Devōt, Tacta and CoreLine, continue to run their existing businesses while integration is planned gradually, primarily through new projects. Sven Marušić says the aim is not to turn founders into corporate employees, but to build a larger organisation in which they remain shareholders and drivers of growth.
Telecom operators are no longer using AI only for network optimisation and routine operations. They are applying it to faster product development and customer conversations. Matija Ražem says AI enables prototypes in hours, quicker market testing, and automation of many standard support questions. The next step may be a world where personal digital agents interact with agents from telecoms, banks and other large organisations.
ReversingLabs is developing agent-based approaches to security operations, while warning that the expertise needed to manage such systems will become even more critical.
