VenueScanner Secures $1.5 Million to Fuel Post-Pandemic Growth
VenueScanner, a London-based online venue booking platform, has secured $1.5 million in funding led by Rianta Capital and ACF Investors
The funding will be used to drive international expansion, enhance the platform, and support the hospitality sector's recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic
VenueScanner aims to simplify the venue search process and help venues fill empty space, particularly as businesses look to re-engage with employees in more flexible environments
The company believes the future of event planning and venue booking is digital, with venues needing to offer virtual tours, digital chat functionality, and online booking and payment options.
ProblemTechnology
"Finding the right venue for an event can be a time-consuming and frustrating process. Event planners often have to contact multiple venues, negotiate prices, and manage bookings manually. This can be especially challenging for smaller businesses and independent venues that may not have the resources to manage a large number of bookings."
Solution
"VenueScanner is a platform that simplifies the process of finding and booking venues. It allows event planners to search for venues based on their needs, compare prices, and book online. The platform also provides tools for venues to manage their bookings and communicate with event planners."
