Buyer Summary
What Is Event Community Platform?
An event community platform extends discovery and relationships before and after the event. It should connect the live program with useful profiles, content, marketplace activity, and ongoing participant value.
Map D connects event profiles, attendee discovery, interactive maps, mobile tools, and a 365 marketplace for year-round engagement.

Connected Event Moments
