The Status Quo

Managing an event of Echelon's scale — with investors, startups, corporates, and media from 35+ countries — typically required cobbling together multiple tools. Manual RSVP tracking, spreadsheet-based registration, long on-site check-in queues, and limited attendee engagement during sessions were common pain points.

Coordinating between exhibitors, sponsors, and networking activities added another layer of complexity. Without a centralized platform, data lived in silos and operational visibility was limited. The team needed a system that could handle thousands of registrations across multiple attendee types while delivering a seamless on-site experience.

e27 required a platform that could match the ambition of Southeast Asia's largest tech gathering — fast, reliable, and capable of supporting high-volume operations without technical disruption.

The Challenge

Three Operational Hurdles

1

Handling thousands of registrations across multiple attendee types

Echelon attracts investors, startup founders, corporate executives, and media — each with different registration paths, access levels, and communication needs. Managing this complexity manually risked errors, delays, and inconsistent attendee experiences.

2

Fast badge printing and QR check-in at scale

With thousands of attendees arriving across two days, the check-in process had to be both fast and reliable. Manual name searches were too slow, and any delay at registration risked creating bottlenecks that would cascade through the event program.

3

Reliable hardware and technical support

A tech conference with 10,000+ attendees and 35+ countries represented cannot afford hardware failures. iPads, printers, routers, and backup units all needed to work flawlessly — and the team needed dedicated on-site support to resolve any issues before they impacted attendees.

The Solution

EventX Features in Action

An end-to-end event management platform that supported Echelon's full attendee journey — from pre-event registration to on-site execution and post-event engagement.

Pre-Event Registration & Management

Online registration with custom forms, RSVP approval workflows, promo codes, and automated email communications. A centralized attendee database gave the team a single source of truth across all attendee types — investors, startups, corporates, and media.

On-Site Check-In & Badge Printing

QR check-in via iPad with instant badge printing, kiosk mode, offline capability, and walk-in registration. The system processed attendees in seconds — no paper lists, no manual lookups, and no queues — regardless of the arrival volume.

WebApp & Dedicated Support

A mobile WebApp with agenda, e-tickets, announcements, and email notifications kept attendees informed and engaged. Dedicated on-site technical support with hardware rental — iPads, printers, routers — ensured flawless operations across both event days.

When you bring together 10,000 people from 35 countries, the check-in experience sets the tone for the entire event. EventX delivered — badges printed in seconds, no queues, and the technical team was on-site every minute handling everything. We could focus on the content and connections instead of worrying about operations.
