Making the drinking experience so much more interactive and creative, Rémy Martin has teamed up with Labwerk and students from Ecole Cantonale d’art de Lausanne to create a beacon app that sends a message people's phones detected near specific bars about their [cocktail along with bartender notes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virtual-bartender), images and the ingredients used. Created as part of Remy Martin's Futur Héritage [pop-up exhibit during Paris Design Week](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popup-at-heathrow-airport), which the app is named after, the beacon app is meant to explore the theme of Rémyxology. The exhibit itself is iBeacon-enabled so that visitors are treated to additional content for a richer experience. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Alcoholic Beacon Apps:** Alcoholic beacon apps that enhance the drinking experience through interactive and creative features. - **Interactive Cocktail Experiences:** Apps that provide personalized cocktail information and experiences to users near specific bars. - **Ibeacon Technology in Hospitality:** The use of iBeacon technology in the hospitality industry to enhance visitor experiences and provide additional content. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Alcohol and Beverage:** Opportunities for alcohol and beverage companies to create beacon apps that engage and inform customers. - **Hospitality:** The hospitality industry can leverage beacon apps to enhance customer experiences in bars and restaurants. - **Technology and App Development:** The development and implementation of beacon apps utilizing iBeacon technology in various industries, including the alcohol and hospitality sectors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bar-Focused Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bar-dating-1.md) - [App-Enabled Cocktail Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bartifier-cocktail-maker.md) - [Dating-Style Bar Discovery Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bar-dating.md) - [Functional Canned Cocktail Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beacon-functional-cocktails.md) - [Accessible RTD Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cocktail-collection-by-ketel-one.md) - [Drink Tracking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mixmate.md) - [Emotional Introspection Drinking Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-and-words.md) - [Mixology Assistant Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sip-cocktails.md) - [Curated Digital Alcohol Brochures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haus.md)
