Event scheduling

Core business

The world of culture revolves around performances and events. Just as much for theatres and concert auditoriums, as for event venues and museums.

If everyone gives it their support, starting with management, individual departmental lists are a thing of the past and information is shared throughout the entire business. And the client, the performance and the event are the focus.
