IN A NUTSHELL
If	you've	a+ended	an	event	or	conference	in	the	last	4	years,	the	chances	
are,	you've	already	experienced	evvnt	.		
	
With	20,000	clients	in	130	countries,	the	evvnt	pla?orm	is	used	to	market	
100,000	events	each	year	and	generates	贈1m	in	revenue	-	one	third	of	it	
by	subscripFon.	
	
Having	raised	贈800,000	in	seed	funding,	we've	grown	organically	for	the	
last	18	months.	We've	been	pro鍖table	since	June	and	we're	up	53%*	on	
this	Fme	last	year.	
	
We're	now	raising	growth	capital	to	accelerate.	We	will	convert	exisFng	
business	to	recurring	revenue	and	target	the	remaining	4.4	billion	events	
that	are	listed	globally	each	year.	With	just	0.1%	market	share,	we'll	turn	
over	more	than	贈100m	per	annum.
