FNTECH

What FNTECH does

FNTECH is a privately held, founder-owned full-service event production company founded in 1998 and headquartered in California, with operational hubs in South San Francisco and Santa Ana. The company produces conferences, conventions, trade shows, hackathons, roadshows, educational seminars, and corporate parties for enterprise clients, anchored by long-tenured relationships with organizations such as Apple, Meta, Roblox, Wells Fargo, Verizon, Cisco/Webex, and the Open Compute Project. Its core offering is built on three integrated service lines — production (audio/visual/tech, lighting, LED, staging), event management, and creative design — delivered either as comprehensive packages or a la carte, and increasingly supplemented by an embedded campus operations model where FNTECH personnel function as an extension of client event teams on corporate campuses.

Underlying the service portfolio is a meaningful physical and digital asset base: a virtual reality lab, a 3D printing hub, a wood/metal fabrication shop with CNC capability, an LED-converted warehouse (55.56% energy reduction), 300+ digital monitors displacing printed signage, proprietary Wentex aluminum frame hardware, and the FNvirtual proprietary virtual/hybrid event platform launched in mid-2020. Supporting platforms include FNstudios (recording/editing/streaming), FNsponsor Services (sponsor management), FNweb Mail, and Client FTP. The company holds registered trademarks for FNTECH and FNvirtual and operates five wholly owned sub-brands.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional-services event production contracts (production, event management, creative design, equipment rental) and, to a lesser extent, recurring/subscription revenue via the FNvirtual streaming platform. Pricing is custom and quote-based, with individual event budgets reaching up to $30 million for major summits. The go-to-market is enterprise direct sales, complemented by a portfolio-driven website and active social presence. The company is founder-owned by CEO Jeremy Muir, COO Chad Kropke, and CFO Bob Moe (co-owner since 2010), with no external institutional investment disclosed.
