01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
MeetingPlay was an event-software company providing full-service technology solutions for meetings and events of all sizes - from conferences of 200,000+ attendees to meetings of fewer than 100 - covering in-person, hybrid and virtual formats. In January 2022 MeetingPlay merged with rival event-software company Aventri, backed by a growth-equity investment from Sunstone Partners and Camden Partners, with Eric Lochner appointed CEO. The combined company acquired eventcore and in October 2022 rebranded the merged entity as Stova.
