What Eventbase does

Eventbase Technology Inc. is a Vancouver-based mobile event technology platform founded in 2009 that builds enterprise-grade event applications for global brands and tier-1 events. The platform supports conferences, trade shows, corporate meetings, festivals, and sports events, with marquee customers including Salesforce, Cisco, SAP, Adobe, IBM, NVIDIA, LinkedIn, AT&T, SXSW, CES, and three Olympic Games (Vancouver 2010, London 2012, and one additional).

The platform is built on a mobile-first, offline-first architecture that allows event apps to function without connectivity, syncing once restored. Core proprietary components include the Discover personalization engine (AI-driven first-screen experiences tailored to attendee role and event lifecycle stage), 3D Deep Maps with bluedot wayfinding for complex venues, and the Eventbase Manager self-service dashboard. More recent additions include eventCopilot (an AI concierge built with TurnoutNow), AI-driven mapping via Pointr, and MagicBadge activation technology launched with George P. Johnson. The company holds ISO 27001:2022 certification, GDPR, and CCPA compliance, and integrates with Airship (push), Mixhalo (audio), Infillion (location), Komo (gamification), and Intergalactic (3D rendering).

Eventbase sells through a direct enterprise sales motion targeting Fortune 500 brand marketers and event organizers. Pricing is quote-based and tiered into Professional Events (entry-level for smaller conferences) and Premium Events (flagship tier with dedicated project teams, 3D Deep Maps, and advanced integrations), billed on annual or multi-year subscription contracts. The company has raised approximately $14.5M across disclosed rounds ($2M from SXSW in 2014, $6M led by Madrona in 2015, and $6.5M in 2018 led by Kensington Capital Partners), and has won "Best Event App" at the Event Technology Awards seven times, alongside Eventex Gold and Webby recognition.
