Our take
Events platform Swapcard is a major player in the events software industry. Impressively adapting to the rise of virtual events, it supplies an end-to-end solution that includes registration, engagement, and networking tools, as well as some novel details like an AI-powered guest matchmaking service.
Acquisitions of MapsPeople and Avolio have seen Swapcard deepen its suite of tools over the years. This is reflective of its approach in positioning itself as a single tech provider capable of handling all aspects of digital, hybrid, and in-person events formats.
Customers like SXSW, Expo Dubai 2020, and Informa are among the high-profile enterprise clients pursuing Swapcard’s services. In a market expected to grow fairly rapidly over the next few years, these players provide a valuable vote of confidence which suggests a bright future for the company.
