Cvent Nearly Died With $400,000 on the Founder’s Credit Cards. Then It Sold for $4.6 Billion.

Tagvenue

Tagvenue is a free-to-use online marketplace for booking event venues, connecting event planners, companies and private hosts with more than 20,000 verified spaces across the UK, US, Canada, Australia, Singapore and Ireland. Founded in London in 2015 by Lancaster University friends Maksims Kondratjuks and Artur Stepaniak, it lets people search, compare and enquire about everything from meeting rooms and restaurants to boats, galleries and converted churches - and only charges venues a commission when a booking is confirmed.
