Eshow, founded in 1996 by CEO Raju Patel, operates as a comprehensive event management solutions provider. Initially a website developer, Patel identified a market need for specialized modules to assist in the event planning process, which led to the company's current focus. The firm is headquartered in South Barrington, Illinois, and caters to a global clientele of over 1,900 organizations, including corporations, associations, and government entities, having served more than 6 million event attendees.
The company's business revolves around a suite of integrated software products designed to manage the entire lifecycle of an event, from planning to post-event analysis. This includes tools for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. Revenue is generated through providing these software solutions and services to event organizers. The platform addresses various aspects of event management such as registration, exhibit and floor plan management, speaker and session coordination, and attendee tracking through RFID.
Eshow's core offering is its Virtual Event Management (VEM™) platform, which facilitates digital and hybrid experiences by mimicking the features of a physical event. This includes virtual booths for exhibitors, networking opportunities through chat and video, live streaming, and gamification to enhance engagement. The platform also provides detailed analytics and reporting, offering insights into attendee behavior and event performance. For exhibitors, the system allows for self-management of profiles and materials, and it integrates with AMS and CRM systems for streamlined data flow. The company also offers a mobile app to improve the attendee experience with personalized agendas and notifications.
