Stova

Stova is an enterprise event management platform formed from the combination of Aventri with other event technology businesses, offering an end-to-end suite for planning, promoting, running and measuring meetings and events. It is designed for organisations that run large or complex event programmes, where registration, attendee data, venues, budgets and engagement metrics are often scattered across disconnected systems and spreadsheets. Stova's approach is to unify these activities on a single data foundation that supports in-person, virtual and hybrid formats, backed by technology-enabled services from its own event professionals for customers who need additional operational support.

Core modules cover event websites and registration, attendee management, payments, housing and travel, sourcing and venue selection, budgeting and meeting request workflows for strategic meetings management. On-site capabilities include badge printing, check-in, lead retrieval and session scanning, while the virtual and hybrid event platform provides streaming, networking, exhibitor spaces and a mobile event app. Analytics and reporting consolidate data across events so that marketing and meetings teams can assess attendance, engagement, pipeline influence and spend at programme level rather than one event at a time. Stova integrates with CRM and marketing automation systems such as Salesforce, HubSpot and Marketo, as well as with travel, payment and single sign-on tools, and offers APIs for custom connections. Security, compliance and data privacy controls are designed for global enterprises operating under frameworks such as GDPR. The platform is cloud-based and typically serves corporate event and meetings teams, associations, life sciences and pharmaceutical companies, financial services firms and agencies managing high volumes of events. Implementation is typically supported by Stova's own services teams, which suits organisations standardising processes across many events. Pricing starts from around USD 10,000, reflecting its enterprise positioning, and is generally tailored to the scope of the event programme; no free trial is indicated and there is no free version.
