Eventboost

What Eventboost does

Eventboost is a private SaaS event management platform founded in 2014 and headquartered in Chiasso, Switzerland, with operating entities in Italy (Cagliari, engineering/R&D), the UK (London), and the US (New York). The platform delivers an integrated suite covering registration forms with conditional logic, multichannel check-in (QR, NFC, kiosk, name lookup), live badge printing, automated email communications, AI-powered attendee matchmaking, seat allocation, voting technology including certified voting for governance events, event websites, mobile event apps, and real-time live event tracking with post-event analytics. Following a 2025 merger with Shocklogic, the platform absorbed association-specific capabilities including abstract submission and programme management, membership database and AMS integration, CEU/CPD tracking, ePosters, and exhibition management. The platform is hosted on AWS EU (Ireland), operates in compliance with GDPR, and is pursuing ISO/IEC 27001 certification targeted for July 2026, with FISMA-ready infrastructure supporting regulated-vertical buyers.

The company serves corporate event organizers (product launches, sales kickoffs, executive summits), associations (annual conferences, chapter meetings, AGMs with certified voting), and agencies (multi-client white-label deployments) as primary segments, with secondary exposure to education, government, and healthcare verticals. Revenue is generated through tiered subscriptions: single-event licenses at €790-€2,490, annual licenses covering 10-20-unlimited events at €6,900-€19,900, and custom-priced enterprise contracts. A 30-day free trial and transparent pricing support a self-serve product-led growth motion for SMBs, while custom-quoted enterprise sales handle larger deployments. The combined platform reports 200+ active customers, 1,800+ events annually, 2M+ registrations processed per year, and 1.1M+ check-ins scanned per year. Go-to-market combines direct website sales, multilingual SEO in six languages, demo-request-driven enterprise sales managed in Pipedrive CRM, and integration partnerships with Salesforce, HubSpot, Pardot, and Zapier.

The business has historically been lean, with disclosed headcount in the 1-10 range and approximately €1.3M in total disclosed funding across rounds from 2014-2019, including a €548K round led by Primo Capital in October 2019. No venture funding rounds have been disclosed since 2019, suggesting either bootstrap-driven growth or undisclosed investment activity. Leadership includes CEO Franco Bondi, co-founder and advisor Michele Pieri, CTO Luigi Tenti, COO Antonio Fernè, CMO Corrado Del Fanti, and CAO Valentina Bergamaschi.
