Founded in 2017, the Event Technology Awards recognises excellence, innovation and creativity in the events industry across 25 different award categories, ranging from Best Technology Start-up through to Best Technology Partnership.

Judged by 18 industry professionals, the awards ceremony was hosted virtually on Thursday 5th November 2020 and welcomed over 500 industry professionals from across the globe to celebrate those recognised for advances in event technology.

Originally launched in 2016, VenuIQ has quickly established itself as a leading events management solution that enables users to create a fully immersive, virtual event experience through an easy-to-use builder platform and key delegate focused features.

Having helped hundreds of organisations ‘pivot' their planned exhibitions and events online since the outbreak of COVID-19, VenuIQ impressed judges with its sophisticated technology and ability to tailor the application to individual event and brand requirements.

Delighted to have won the prestigious award, Philip Mayling, Co-Founder of VenuIQ said: "2020 has certainly been an incredibly challenging year for the events industry, where we as a team have done all we can to help organisations, corporates and events professionals adapt to new restrictions and host their events virtually via our unique and fully immersive platform.

To be recognised by the Events Technology Awards for both our hard work and ability to help the events industry overcome the difficulties of COVID-19 is a true honour and we now look forward to cementing long-term client relationships so that VenuIQ is a platform the industry values and utilises for years to come."
