: Sprintr

Welcome to BEIA, Sprintr 👋

New Zealand organisers may already know this team. Event Solutions NZ is now a Sprintr company, following the Australian event tech business acquiring its long-time NZ partner in May. Founder Claire Webber stays on, delivering local events, now with a bigger toolkit behind her.

Sprintr covers the full event lifecycle: pre-event registration, websites and engagement apps; onsite check-in with self-service kiosks, badge printing and a dedicated support crew; and post-event data and insights. Their kiosks are platform-agnostic, integrating with EventsAIR, Entegy, cvent and more. Backed by years of experience supporting PCOs, associations and corporate clients, Sprintr takes event technology off your plate so you can focus on delivering exceptional experiences.

Sustainability runs through the hardware too, with recyclable check-in kiosks, recycled lanyards and biodegradable pouches. Having stock and people based here means less freight across the Tasman.
