Talking Events: The Event Geek project management system

Alex Patriquin, founder of Event Geek, joined the Talking Events podcast from his base in Boston, USA to discuss the company’s unique project management software and the inspiration behind its creation.  Having worked for several startup companies in a digital marketing capacity, Alex’s role quickly evolved to include the planning and running of events. It was this experience that prompted him to think that a new solution for project managing events was perhaps needed within the sector. “Event Geek is project management software for events. As someone who was responsible for running over 50 events a year with a $1 million budget, I struggled to find a project management tool that was completely designed for my needs as an organiser. Before we even wrote a single line of code we spoke to over 150 event planners and marketers in order to find out what tools they are using and what their frustrations are. This allowed us to create something that we knew would have synergy with potential customers when it was eventually released.”
