Contrary to many predictions, cash continues not to lose significance. It also remains a top topic for trade. However, this is associated with some hurdles: increasing cost pressure, growing complexity, and cumbersome coin sourcing. Overcoming these in a timely manner to remain competitive in the market is one of the major challenges for retailers. That is why ALVARA has created the Cash Dialogue as an exchange platform. The goal: to identify future-proof solutions together with the trade.
ALVARA Cash Dialogue Spring 2023
On May 11 and 12, we at ALVARA | Digital Solutions invite retail companies to our next Cash Dialogue in Leipzig. The best part about our on-site exchange: we bring your practical experiences into focus. Because only with this valuable knowledge can we develop ideas for suitable solution approaches. To ensure we cover the topics that concern you the most, we rely on co-creation. So, you have a say in the topic planning!
For example, have you faced a specific challenge in the past year? Do you need a solution for it? Or do you have an innovation in the cash process to announce? Then feel free to send us your suggestions for the discussion. By April 10, 2023, we will incorporate them into the agenda for the spring exchange. We look forward to your input!
Two questions might currently make it onto the agenda:
- What is the status of demand-driven arrivals using artificial intelligence (AI)?
- To what extent can courier services represent alternative cash transportation – sustainably and efficiently?
What happened so far: Review of Cash Dialogue 2022
Our Cash Dialogue is already a tradition. It takes place twice a year – in spring and fall. Last year, retailers took great advantage of the opportunity to exchange ideas intensively about cash processes. One main topic was digital software solutions such as the ICC platform. Also frequently discussed were the status and developments in the cash-in-transit industry.
Curious about what the Cash Dialogue really brings to your everyday work? In 2022, we collected many exciting ideas. But not only that. There is also ample room for implementation. For example, an interactive map of Germany with the cash-in-transit companies and cash service companies was created. The added values for retailers:
- The map provides an overview of the various cash-in-transit companies throughout Germany.
- In tenders, the trade can use this information.
- The interactive map of Germany helps to find alternatives easily.
We are confident that the upcoming Cash Dialogue will also bring exciting insights – through your participation!
