Our take
For many event organisers, building an event app is complex and time-consuming, especially at scale. Eventbase solves this problem by building and powering mobile event apps.
Eventbase has been one of the industry's leading players for over a decade, and has powered apps for events such as SXSW festival and multiple Olympic Games. This is testament to the quality of their apps, and to their ability to manage them for some of the world's biggest events.
Eventbase will need to continue to build and innovate its technology in order to maintain and grow its client base.
