Company mission
To promote the best corporate event hosts, focusing on employee and client engagement solutions
Our take
Remote work has quickly become the rule rather than the exception since the pandemic. This has meant that office managers have quickly had to adapt their team-building efforts to the virtual world, with some more successful than others.
Elevent makes corporate entertainment easy with a marketplace for virtual entertainment sessions like cooking events, stand-up comedy shows and mediation sessions. Crucially, Elevent verifies the quality of every vendor on its platform guaranteeing stakeholders a level of quality, as well as simplicity.
The company plans to expand its portfolio of experience to hundreds of options, including additional categories such as educational content and fitness.
While the startup has been able to deliver consistently engaging events for its clients until this point, their challenge will be maintaining the reliability of their service as they scale.
