Overview

Event Inc is a German digital marketplace and SaaS provider for booking and managing corporate events. Its platform connects event planners, procurement teams, HR departments, and marketing teams with venues, hotels, meeting rooms, and event-service providers.

The company is headquartered in Hamburg and positions itself as a specialist in corporate-event procurement rather than as an event venue operator. Company materials report a portfolio of more than 90,000 venues and event spaces across its operating markets, with offices in Germany and Rotterdam.

History

Event Inc was founded in Hamburg in 2014 by serial entrepreneur Janna Ensthaler, also identified in company materials as Janna Schmidt-Holtz. Paul Philipp Hermann joined in 2018 and has served as CEO since 2019. The company developed from an event-location marketplace into a SaaS-enabled booking and management platform for corporate events. In 2023, Event Inc Group acquired HONEST GmbH & Co. KG, expanding its event-services portfolio.

Reputation

Event Inc is regarded as a German corporate-event booking specialist with a broad venue network and a platform-oriented purchasing model. Company and venue pages show generally positive customer ratings, although many individual listings have small review samples. The main limitations are that pricing varies substantially by venue and package, and the platform depends on the quality, availability, and accuracy of third-party listings.
