Golden 1 Center

During the 2019-20 Sacramento Kings season, Golden 1 Center became the world’s first professional sports and entertainment venue to feature an IoT-powered smart pouring solution. Golden 1 Center was proud to test, enhance, and launch NINA’s bottle-mounted device and app technology that has since been expanded to several arenas around the country.

NINA has provided our suite and loft guests a safe and efficient way to enjoy drinks and customize their experience down to the individual level. By connecting a digital device to the top of liquor bottles in suites and lofts, our clients, guests, and staff are able to monitor and control how much alcohol is being poured. Tablets in the suites and lofts allow fans to pay for a drink, unlock their favorite bottle, and pour exactly how much they want to create their perfect drink.

Combined with actionable data layers and a profitable business model, NINA aims to empower businesses to gain a higher revenue stream by providing customers with a premium experience while obtaining valuable consumption data used to customize guest experience and improve operational efficiency. Since launching in January 2020, the guest response at Golden 1 Center has been extremely positive, and the suites and lofts utilizing NINA have seen a significant increase in revenue compared to the same period of time the previous year.
