KiwiLive was a technology company that operated in the event services sector, founded in 2013 by Joe Boyd and Jeffrey Mason. Headquartered in Cincinnati, United States, the firm positioned itself as a developer of an audience interaction platform for live events.
The company's core offering was a mobile application designed to bridge the gap between presenters and their audiences in real-time. This platform provided event organizers, speakers, and trainers with a suite of tools to engage attendees directly. Key features included live polling, question-and-answer sessions, and the ability to share documents. Beyond direct presentation feedback, the application also facilitated networking opportunities among organizers, speakers, and attendees.
From a financial perspective, KiwiLive was backed by accelerator/incubator funding. The company successfully raised capital through a Series A funding round on September 12, 2016, although the specific amount was not disclosed. This investment round involved institutional investors such as UpTech and Fern. Despite these milestones, the company has since ceased operations and is now considered defunct.
