Eurobank was looking for a ticketing provider regarding an upcoming corporate internal event that would be based on a private list of invitation only attendees. ComeTogether had been working with Eurobank for more than a year to support their eCommerce payment provider requirements.

In addition to ticketing, Eurobank wanted to develop a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) to celebrate the event that would be a digital representation of a statue that is awarded to children of employees based on their exceptional academic achievements. This digital 3D model was available to all students and their parents, to mint as an NFT in order to retain a digital collectible in addition to their physical award.

“We collaborated with ComeTogether on our corporate event. Our aim was to utilize new technologies to provide our guests with a seamless, unique, and engaging experience. ComeTogether’s approach, ideas, and solution were innovative and fresh, aligning with the Eurobank’s vision,” shared Maria Tachataki, Head of Employee Technology & Internal Communication at Eurobank.

ComeTogether recently spoke with Liberal to discuss the most valuable “ticket” to success for us to reinvent ticketing.

Since October 2019, ComeTogether has supported more than 1,800 events in Greece, the United Kingdom, Spain and Australia, having sold more than 400,000 tickets to date. The idea to leverage the technology of NFTs ( Non Fungible Tokens ) and blockchain , while introducing innovations for increased security, risk-free resale opportunities, viral organic marketing and fan engagement in event ticketing, caused a ‘ disruption ‘ in the ticketing market.

Repeat clientele includes some of the biggest music events in Greece, such as reworks festival, Wang Homesick Tour and Konstantinos Argyros Elpida Tour. ComeTogether was placed fourth in the 14th Innovation & Technology Competition of the National Bank’s Business Seeds program and received a cash prize of €4,000.

Η ComeTogether μίλησε πρόσφατα στο Liberal σχετικά με το πιο πολύτιμο “εισιτήριο” προς την επιτυχία, στο πλαίσιο της επανεφεύρεσης του τρόπου διάθεσης εισιτηρίων.

Από τον Οκτώβριο του 2019, η ComeTogether έχει υποστηρίξει περισσότερες από 1.800 εκδηλώσεις σε Ελλάδα, Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, Ισπανία και Αυστραλία, με συνολικές πωλήσεις άνω των 400.000 εισιτηρίων. Η ιδέα να αξιοποιηθεί η τεχνολογία των NFTs και του blockchain, εισάγοντας καινοτομίες για αυξημένη ασφάλεια, ευκαιρίες μεταπώλησης εισιτηρίων χωρίς ρίσκο, οργανικό marketing από το κοινό και νέους τρόπους αλληλεπίδρασης με τους θαυμαστές, έχει προκαλέσει “αναστάτωση” στην αγορά εισιτηρίων.

Στους συνεργάτες της εταιρείας συγκαταλέγονται μερικές από τις μεγαλύτερες μουσικές εκδηλώσεις στην Ελλάδα, όπως το Reworks Festival, το Wang Homesick Tour και η περιοδεία “Ελπίδα” του Κωνσταντίνου Αργυρού. Η ComeTogether κατέλαβε την τέταρτη θέση στον 14ο Διαγωνισμό Καινοτομίας & Τεχνολογίας του προγράμματος Business Seeds της Εθνικής Τράπεζας και έλαβε χρηματικό έπαθλο ύψους 4.000 ευρώ.

ComeTogether has been historically known for its work in the music live events industry – from festivals to concerts to NFT collectibles developed with artists. The company has now moved beyond music into other industries – sports, performing arts, business conferences, museums and art galleries.

The basic portfolio of ComeTogether functionality can be applied to all markets, although the specific combination of solutions could vary across the different industry verticals. Let’s consider how market specific applications would be tailored to the organizers/attendees of these events in support of current industry challenges.

Sports: Ticket fraud and scalping are a growing challenge for sports events. Who can forget the UEFA and the French football federation fiasco in 2022 where there were an estimated 2,800 fake tickets. Unfortunately, this continues to become a more prevalent challenge across popular sports matches globally. Another topic is the management of season tickets to ensure that tickets have the opportunity to be used if the holder can’t attend, so the stadium isn’t filled with empty seats. Blockchain is a perfect solution.

Performing arts: The performing arts are also plagued by the challenges of ticket resale fraud, exorbitant pricing and season ticket attendance. NYTix recently published an article discussing the ticket fraud and resale challenges existing on Broadway. Digital ticketing based on a Blockchain infrastructure will go a long way to help ensure that ticket resale is managed in a legitimate way. In the resale scenario many tickets are resold with inaccurate seating location descriptions. 3D seating provided by ComeTogether ensures an accurate depiction of where the seat is located before a purchase takes place.

Business conferences: Business conferences may not suffer from ticket fraud and resale challenges, but they have their set of topics that need to be addressed. One is proof of attendance. As business professionals attend different conferences it can be important for them to prove their attendance as a confirmation of training. 

NFTs are also a great way to share content from business conferences. With NFT-gated content it’s easy to control who is allowed access to what contact without having to distribute cumbersome logins that users can ultimately misplace. 

Museums and art galleries: Museums (and Art Galleries) also fall prey to ticket resale fraud in some of the larger hard to gain entry ticket museums. With any resale sites that provide tickets from many different venues the buyer must beware if these are legitimate resales and if the pricing is not over-inflated.

Enabling ticket sale and resale directly from a museum’s website protects against ticket fraud and enables the museum to control the resale pricing levels. ComeTogether offers white label solutions that enable tickets to be sold and resold directly from the website of the museum or art gallery with their own branding.Digital collectibles are a way to provide a treasured memory after attending one of these venues. As we’ve moved to a more digital world the opportunity to have physical keepsakes has declined in some instances. Digital keepsakes – collectibles – provide the opportunity to continue to offer attendees something to ‘take home’ from their visit.

The power of knowing your customer well can never be underestimated. Or in the case of a live event, more specifically your attendees. Building future marketing programs based on the analysis of today’s buyers will help event organizers to provide a solution better aligned with their attendees and their buying personas.

Of course, the solution being provided is a live event. But this is only the simple starting point to craft something aligned with your attendees’ desired overall experience and purchasing patterns. Let’s consider how this could work with advanced digital or NFT ticketing solutions?

Ticketing is where it all begins with any live event. The first impression of the event to come, the excitement of making the purchase and knowing you’re going to see something amazing.

Today’s digital ticketing solutions are the starting point to enhance the customer experience for your next event, but you don’t need to jump straight to new technologies such as NFT ticketing. There are still many enhancements digital tickets can provide to catch the attention of your attendees. Let’s begin with the buying process.
