Event technology innovators TicketCo scoop two awards at prestigious Event Tech Live
Yesterday was a great day at TicketCo. After being shortlisted in three categories at Event Technology Awards 2021 in London, TicketCo was awarded as both Best Sales Technology and Best Pivot from Physical to Virtual during Event Tech Live.
“Being awarded Best Pivot from Physical to Virtual is a great recognition of TicketCo Media Services, but the award for Best Sales Technology is probably an even bigger acclamation of what TicketCo is and where we stand right now. We have a rock solid and extremely user friendly ticketing platform and it is great to see that the judging panel at Event Technology Awards have attached themselves to this fact,” said TicketCo’s Vice President of Greenfield Sales, David Kenny.
He received the two awards in Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane along with Patch Jobson and Tim Fanucci, both Partner Key Account Managers for Culture at TicketCo in the UK.
The future is hybrid
“The awards are also a great testament to our clients who have embraced our innovative technology during a period of rapid change in the events industry and the excellent team at TicketCo who work tirelessly on their behalf,” added Mr Kenny.
“We were up against some strong competitors and came out as winners in two really relevant categories for what TicketCo is all about.
“After our pivot into virtual events early last year, we have managed to build what today is the world’s only true hybrid events platform. There seems to be a lot of confusion in the event industry on the subject of hybrid events right now and this year’s Event Tech Live has shown the word hybrid can mean almost anything. At TicketCo, our interpretation is that a true hybrid events platform is one where organisers can conduct every aspect of their hybrid event without fragmentation.
“One day into Event Tech Live, it seems clear to me that hybrid events are considered to be the future not only by us, but by every single exhibitor. Everyone is preaching the gospel of hybrid one way or another, but there are severe differences when it comes to the different offerings. Our offering consists of both onsite sales, online sales and of course sales of virtual tickets, and this combination makes us quite unique. Furthermore, our virtual solution is fully integrated with our ticketing platform and that secures a hybrid events platform without fragmentation of any kind. And when it comes to this platform, we fully agree with the jury at this years Event Technology Awards. It is simply the Best Sales Technology you can get.”
