Considering the challenges which needed to be addressed, the Applikey team developed an efficient solution for event organizers. Today the solution represents a cutting-edge digital platform for event organizers suitable for arranging symposiums, conferences, trade shows, fairs, festivals, corporate events, and trainings of different types and scopes.
