Regional Director WeChat Pay Europe, Jeff Hu, will introduce WeChat and its pay platform. WeChat is a Chinese multipurpose app. Later, Valerie Soh will explain "how Schiphol and WeChat Pay are collaborating in optimising the customers journey of the Chinese traveler". An interesting presentation, as the number of Chinese tourists is increasing. So, why not meet them halfway.

4 - Smart online growth by data driven campaigns, personalisation and conversion
