Company History – an idea turns to FLAVE
2011:
The idea for FLAVE is born:
A guy from Styria and a guy from Vienna get to know each other at University. They organize gaming events and experience the logistical problems of event organizers first hand. They set out to find technical solutions to simplify the logistics of invitations as well as improve upon on-site participant-management. They pioneer NFC-solutions to automate admittance and social media activities. Their proof of concept soon follows with a few thousand high-school graduates and a small staff of contributors. After their first success, they gain confidence that their idea has potential for the event industry at large.
2013:
The idea becomes a company: The FLAVE GmbH
Gerhard Hauser, one of the two founders, takes the helm. He did already show potential early on in his career, being voted one of the TOP-30 young entrepreneurs to watch. Now he is going full force to develop premium attendee- and event solutions. Together with his business partner he puts together a team of highly skilled developers with one common goal: FLAVE sets out to explore the space beyond simple ticket sales.
2015:
FLAVE grows!
More and more organizers see the benefits in digital invite- and attendee management and FLAVE’s customer base, especially in B2B, grows rapidly. Event agencies are also increasingly interested in using FLAVE’s smart event-tools for their customers. The growing customer base also shows one thing very clearly: every event is different. FLAVE realizes this and keeps fine-tuning their digital customer- and event solutions to the individual needs of their clients. FLAVE focuses mostly on the German-speaking markets and their potential; it has however also realized projects for customers in the Middle East and the US.
2018:
FLAVE links the real world to the digital world
Customers experience a growing need for digital interactivity and FLAVE adjusts its portfolio accordingly. FLAVE uses NFC-technology to integrate prize games, photo stations, surveys and quizzes into the live-events of their clients. The FLAVE navigator is a smartphone app that guides customers through the highlights of events and allows for easy link-up with their social media accounts. For the organizers, using FLAVE tools means in-depth event-data analysis as well as precisely targeted marketing before, during and after the event.
A particular highlight of 2018 was the “Horizont” event that has been honored with 3 different awards: the international BestEventAward, the Austrian Event Award and the Webex Award.
2020
FLAVE goes virtual
2020 has been an extraordinarily challenging year for many and FLAVE is no exception. With the event industry grinding to a halt in March, many players in the field were looking for solutions – and so was FLAVE – together with its partners and customers. While FLAVE used to be the partner for the digital portion of live events, it is now letting attendees experience whole events digitally. Together with its customers the FLAVE team develops solutions to transition the planned congresses, fairs and conventions into fully digital experiences. But it’s not all digital, success was also being had offline: the FLAVE reservations- and registration management made it possible for the few live events of our customers to be held in full compliance with the corona regulations of the time. The highlight of the year came again in form of recognition in the field – the virtual “Ringana Convention 2020” managed to snag up a gold and a silver award at the Best Event Awards.
2022:
FLAVE combines the best of both worlds
Challenges bring new opportunities – and in the case of the event industry, new formats. Hybrid is THE buzzword. Our FLAVE event platform is proving to be THE link between on-site and online participants, including a personalized user cockpit. Challenges mean further development: we develop new features for digital interaction – online, live and hybrid – based on the valuable input from our customers.
For greater event security, we expanded the FLAVE solution to include a Covid status check with certificate matching and the FLAVE family has a new family member: the new NFC gates for secure single entry. In addition, 3 new BEA awards crown the year 2021. In summary, just like our customers’ events, the FLAVE puzzle is becoming ever more colorful and diverse
