  Brought to you by
1. Eventparticipantsvisit multiple sites to
                    complete booking process for overseas events

                      Event Registration

                      Flights

 The problem          Hotels
we are solving
                 2. They manually compare event details to ensure

                      The flights arrive prior toeventcommencement

                      The hotel is located close to the eventvenue
3.   Event organizers are not able to provide a
                      seamless booking experience for their foreign
                      participants
 The problem
we are solving
                 4.   Event organizers are not able to monetize
                      travel bookings foreign participants make
1.   Participantswant to make travel arrangements
                  at the event site

                   Flights – attendees want shortest traveling
                    time
      Our
hypothesis         Hotels – attendees want shortest traveling
                    time/distance

             2.   Event organizers want a simple way to
                  include a booking function and potentially
                  monetize each travel booking processed
APIs used

                      Flights –wego
In creating our
       solution       Hotels – Expedia
Our solution
               1.   Web application (events.tripconomics.com)

                       Sort by industry/interest
                       Search particular event
                       Displays available hotels nearest to event
                        location
                       Displays flights arriving 1 day before event
                        begins, and departing 1 day after event ends
Our solution

               2.   Widget

                       Easy to embed on event website, no coding
                        required

                       Facebook event pages
1.   Event organizers can now easily offer a
                     function highly in demand by participants
                     traveling to the event

This is great
                2.   Event organizers can now monetize the travel
    because          bookings made by attendees


                3.   Participantsno longer have to plan from
                     multiple sites
1.   B2C
                         EventParticipants
                          •   Speakers
                          •   Spectators
                          •   Guests
                          •   Participants
This is very
  useful to    2.   B2B
                         Event Registration Pages
                         Event Facebook Pages
                         Interest Groups Registration /
                          FacebookPages
1.   Commissions from Bookings


We make    2.   3rd Party White Label / Customized Apps and
money by        Widgets

           3.   Advertising on Web Application
