Here at FIXR we’re on a mission to be the number one event intelligence and ticketing platform globally. Ticket sales and event management can typically be a clunky, manual process, but our platform makes it easier than ever for event organisers to create seamless, user-friendly experiences for their customers. Not only that, but we also provide organisers with data intelligence and insights that help profile their ticket buyers to retain and grow their audience over time.

We kickstarted our journey in 2015, and since then we’ve helped millions of people enjoy events across EMEA. While we’ve been a leading ticketing platform in the student and nightlife events industries since our inception, we’ve seen explosive growth across wider industry areas, and we are now building on this accelerated momentum to expand into new verticals and markets.
