SaaS solution that constantly evolves 

run.events, as an event management platform, has been designed from scratch. It aims to support event organizers in all aspects of their business while using a modern, cloud-based platform. The platform doesn't require set-up time or upfront payments. It features a modern, web-based user interface that enables quick adoption and short getting-to-use time. From its conceptual phase, run.events aim to become a central communication point with the main event stakeholders: attendees, sponsors, speakers, and service providers.

The platform itself constantly evolves, but the go-to-market version already has numerous features to ease event organizers' day-to-day tasks. The platform’s main focus is on the features that help event organizers with seamless ticketing configurations and sales, tickets and attendee management, customers and invoicing, customer relationship management (CRM), sponsors management, and speakers and agenda management.

Event Ticketing 

Ticket sales generate the biggest chunk of revenue in the event business. Maximizing revenue opportunities is a priority for any EMP currently available to offer multiple features supporting easy ticketing and transparency about prices and discounts. In response to demand, run.events built its main features around tickets, attendees, finances, and payment processes. To name a few:

• Ticket type management, advanced ticket rules and options, ticket add-ons, and ticket options targeted to different audience groups

• Ticket sales, invoice issuing, and management

• Payments management, financial reporting

• Managing ticket refunds and cancellations, issuing cancellation documents

• Managing vouchers and corporate customers

• Conference badge design and printing for attendees, speakers, sponsors, and service providers

• Attendee check-ins and registration desk management

Lead scanning and retrieval services

Let's not forget that event sponsors and partners offer financial stability to event organizers firsthand and a great sense of credibility for future iterations by generating bigger ticket sales and growth in attendance. In general, sponsors are looking for power options when it comes to lead scanning and retrieval services and, at the same time, transparency inside sponsorship packages. In this area, run.events offer sponsors and partners multiple features:

• Global CRM: Ability to manage all sponsors, service providers, and other key customers in an easy-to-use CRM
