Ameca Servicios Corporativos SL

What Ameca Servicios Corporativos SL does

AMECA Servicios Corporativos SL is a Spanish private limited company (Sociedad Limitada), founded in 1993 and headquartered in San Sebastián, with additional offices in Barcelona and Madrid. The company specializes in interactive voting and audience response systems for live events, with a customer base spanning medical congresses, pharmaceutical companies, corporate assemblies, business associations, and media programs. Notable customers include Novartis, Roche, Bayer, AstraZeneca, BBVA, Repsol, Cepsa, El Corte Inglés, and Airbus Spain, with the medical/pharmaceutical vertical appearing to be the strongest segment.

The product portfolio consists of two proprietary hardware voting keypad lines (Master using fixed-frequency radio and Messenger using Wi-Fi 802.11 with 128-bit encryption and RFID identification), an RFID-based smart badge access control system, a Message Gateway for real-time audience-to-screen messaging, and the Plataforma AMECA 4.0 web-based participation platform accessible from any internet-connected device without app installation. The company has executed events ranging from 15 to 1,500+ attendees, including simultaneous multi-venue voting across four Spanish cities for a pharmaceutical launch in 2011 and international deployments in cities including Stockholm, London, Washington, Brussels, Frankfurt, Lisbon, and Paris.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: full-service rental of equipment with AMECA's own technical staff (turnkey delivery), rental of equipment without technical staff for self-managed clients, and direct equipment sales including hardware and PowerQ software licenses. Additional revenue comes from hybrid events (combining in-room and online voting) and virtual events with streaming. The company operates a direct sales model, reaching customers via its corporate website, social media, presence at industry congresses, and partnerships with audiovisual production firms and professional congress organizers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled on a contact basis.
