The Kiwi company powering global cinemas
Meet the operating system behind the global box office.
We’re with Stuart Dickinson, CEO of Vista Group, a Kiwi software provider serving almost half the world’s major movie theatre chains. Stuart explains how Vista handles over $15 billion USD in transactions annually, with the shift from simple coke and popcorn sales to luxury dining and beverage service.
Hear about Vista's transformation to a higher-margin Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription model and the associated risks and opportunities. Find out about the real impact of streaming, why a theatrical release is still good for a film’s bottom line, and why theaters love horror movies. Plus, the financial metrics retail investors should watch to track Vista’s ongoing transformation.
Plus, Stuart explains his confidence in the future of the cinema experience—even in the Netflix age.
