Overview

Eventfuel.io was a comprehensive event management platform designed to help corporate event planners manage registrations, attendee engagement, and logistics. The platform provided web and mobile-based apps to facilitate real-time updates, attendee interaction, and data collection. Although it gained popularity for streamlining event workflows and optimizing ROI, the company is currently categorized as deadpooled or discontinued.

Founder story

Eventfuel.io was founded in 2013 by Niko Roberts in Lisbon, Portugal. Born from a prototype built for a startup conference in 2011, the platform aimed to solve the fragmentation in event management software. Despite scaling to support thousands of events, the company eventually ceased operations and is now considered a deadpooled entity.
