Overview

Validar is a Seattle-based event-technology company focused on onsite registration, attendee tracking, lead retrieval, session attendance, feedback, and engagement measurement for B2B events. Its platform is positioned as an integrated event-data system that follows attendee activity from check-in through post-event analysis.

The company serves events ranging from small gatherings to shows with more than 50,000 attendees. It is notable for combining onsite registration and badge printing with tracking and engagement products, and for offering full-service, kit-based, and software-only deployment models.

History

Validar Inc. was established in 2005. The company developed around helping B2B event marketers measure event performance and attendee value. Over time, it expanded from lead retrieval and onsite registration into attendee tracking, session measurement, feedback, engagement, and event-ROI tools. Its current platform connects registration, attendance, engagement, and lead data across the event lifecycle.
