History

It launched its first online platform in 2014 and expanded into trade fairs and congresses in 2015 with accreditation and access-control tools. The company adopted the VPEventos name and introduced a customized mobile event app in 2019. The 4.events brand launched in 2021 with an integrated ecosystem including facial recognition, business matchmaking, and academic-event modules; in 2025 it introduced the E.V.E. artificial-intelligence product and a new visual identity.

Reputation
4.events is positioned as a Brazilian specialist in integrated event technology, with particular recognition for combining digital ticketing, mobile apps, accreditation, access control, and on-site operations. Its stated strengths include a single database for multiple event functions, Brazilian technology and data hosting, and a transaction-based model beginning at 4.5% per ticket without setup or recurring platform fees. Publicly available information provides limited independent review coverage, so claims about scale, comparative pricing, and facial-recognition advantages are primarily company-reported.
