Good job, congrats! I'm interested to hel out for sure. Would need some time to go thru the features though. First few quick comments:

I've loved using Eventbrite and it has some really nice additional features that you could benchmark (event picture, paid ticket/ donation option for scaling the business and getting some money in, showing remaining tickets for public if wanted, automatic (scheduled) email announcements for community subsribers (before event, launchign event, after event, etc.).

Also streamlining the sponsorship process would be helpful. Often times sponsors don't remember to accept the offers etc. and we are forced to send emails back and forth.

Connecting to SoMe accounts/ Slack and sharing event info from the platform.

Last but not least, making it possible for same sponsor to be added in multiple cities.

We've realized that companies in Tampere are willing to pay a bit extra if we just ask them for some organizing fee. To include that into the sponsorship process would be really nice. Would require more specs for sure.

Thanks! Sointu
