Bizzabo is an award-winning event success platform and the world's fastest growing event technology company, providing marketers with a modern suite of tools to create impactful and rewarding professional events. Bizzabo offers corporations, publishers, agencies and 3rd party event planners the tools to streamline and optimize their events.

"Events are a strategic channel for our customers to drive business objectives, but no modern platform is bringing together the variety of tools needed to collect and leverage the necessary data to make events more valuable to driving business goals," said Eran Ben-Shushan, CEO and Co-Founder.

"Bizzabo is the only platform focusing on event success, and not just event management, by building a product that helps organizers boost registrations, productivity,engagement and other key metrics. This round of funding will allow us to scale our team further and drive the innovation this industry is craving. As more engagement migrates online in-person events are becoming more important than ever. Using our platform, sales, marketing and HR teams are able to take the power of events to new heights."

By creating a platform that emphasizes event success, the company is enabling businesses of all sizes to drive real and lasting ROI from their event budget. Bizzabo is redefining the event space by applying the same data driven, ROI based approaches today's giant SaaS solutions used to revolutionize the way companies run their sales and marketing initiatives."
