Eventillas story
It was 2010 when Markus and Samuli finally decided to solve an age-old problem: why did organizing every event require reinventing the wheel? Together, they decided to develop a service that would handle event management effortlessly.
For over fifteen years, Eventilla has partnered with tens of thousands of events. Markus led the company until 2014, when Pekka Huttunen was appointed CEO to drive growth and internationalization, while Markus took charge of technical leadership. In 2026, Eventilla’s offering expanded into networking and matchmaking when the company acquired the Finnish event app Tavata. Tavata continues as its own brand, but now systems for the entire event lifecycle are available under one roof.
Today, Eventilla is a team of 15 dedicated employees working passionately for a better event world. Over the years, our strengths have been an exceptionally user-friendly product and a strong service mindset. We operate genuinely as ourselves and encourage entrepreneurship with a human face.
Eventilla is an independent company, but works in close collaboration with the award-winning Liana Technologies.
At Eventilla, we know the event world like the back of our hand – and we want to make your work with events easier.
