Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
Bizzabo is an Israeli event technology company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Tel Aviv with offices in New York, building a comprehensive event experience operating system that powers the full lifecycle of in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. The platform provides event organizers with tools for registration, ticketing, agenda management, networking facilitation, sponsor management, mobile event apps, virtual event streaming, and post-event analytics—all unified in a single platform.
The company's technology leverages data and AI to enhance attendee engagement and event ROI. Bizzabo's platform captures rich interaction data across all event touchpoints—session attendance, networking connections, content engagement, and sponsor interactions—enabling organizers to measure event impact and optimize future experiences. The platform's Klik SmartBadge technology uses NFC-enabled wearable badges to facilitate seamless check-ins, lead capture, and attendee interaction tracking at in-person events, providing a layer of physical-digital integration.
Bizzabo has grown significantly by capitalizing on the shift toward hybrid and data-driven events. The company serves enterprise customers including major brands, associations, and event agencies, and has raised substantial venture funding. Bizzabo's event experience platform addresses the growing demand for measurable, engaging event experiences as the events industry evolves beyond traditional logistics toward experience-driven, data-informed programs.
