#EventX

EventX, an Asia-based enterprise virtual event management company, has closed a USD 10 million series B funding co-led by HTC and Gaocheng Capital. EventX is known as a dominant virtual event platform in Asia, especially for events that involve mainland China attendees where its unique design architecture overcomes internet firewalls to enable the service of any cross-region events. EventX includes support for in-country and cross-border events with mainland China that has successfully gained the company contracts from hundreds of the world’s biggest events industry players and brands, including Alibaba, PwC, GL Events, Informa, Reed Exhibition, Yahoo, government departments, and universities. Both the founding of this strategic alliance and the massive enthusiasm of its investors follow a year of an incredible performance by EventX — during which the company has posted YoY user growth exceeding 800% — and several years of more than 5 million satisfied attendees in over 20,000 online, hybrid and offline events. With EventX's unique China access and together with HTC VIVE, the company will be adopting VR and prospecting technology into the core capabilities of the event SaaS product to make it accessible and reinvent the virtual event experience. For the first attempt to add VR and prospecting technology into core capabilities, EventX is releasing a virtual event lite platform and opening it for segments such as NGOs, SMEs, and startups to register and organize virtual events for free at this link.
