In 1999, Cvent CEO & Founder, Reggie Aggarwal, set out to find the aspirin for a pain point: organizing events more efficiently – and the secret to solving this pain point was through technology.

For over 20 years, Cvent has powered the human connection – making the process of getting together easier and the impact of meeting more quantifiable. Our technology empowers event organizers and marketers to automate meeting processes, create amazing experiences, and build events that maximize attendee engagement that can be used to deeply understand attendee interests for more effective post-event follow up. Harnessing and maximizing event engagement helps organizations measure and grow their event ROI. Within our platform, we bring both sides of the meetings ecosystem together – the buyers (e.g. event organizers, marketers) and the suppliers (e.g. venues, destinations, production companies) – to collaborate and create engaging, impactful experiences. As a result, we offer a global events marketplace with powerful network effects.

Organizations spent $1 trillion on meetings and events globally in 2018* and the need for technology to manage and execute them has never been greater. Today, virtual, in-person, and hybrid events are all flourishing, and Cvent stands ready with the platform, the deep industry expertise, and the ecosystem to help organizations maximize their event opportunities.
