And that bothers us a lot.

So as entrepreneurs, we've said, we're going to fix it.

Two years in, our customers actually told us, you know, you build this great mobile networking app.

Why aren't you doing also the other elements of events, which are actually more painful and we need even more help there and are even more mission critical to the success of the event, like the website, like registration, analytics, agenda, email marketing, you know, combined with the social aspects and networking aspects.

And around two years in, so call it mid-late 2014, we realized we have even a bigger opportunity ahead of us where what's traditionally out there in the market is more of legacy solutions that are focused more on functionality.

And we said we're going to build Bizabo to be a strong, holistic, functional platform with an even stronger data infrastructure environment.

And that's how it's built.

So that was the timeline, launched 2012, expanded the model and became a SaaS company towards 2015.

We have 120 people.

Originally, we're from Israel.

I guess the name and the accent, but you probably picked on that.

But we started the company in Israel.

I myself moved here to New York and joined one of the co-founders.

We're three co-founders who started the business.

I joined alone my co-founder who came here first.

Around four years ago, we have around 50 people in the Israeli team.

Everything around product, engineering, and design is based in Tel Aviv.
