With the acquisition of ITN, Aventri will broaden its technology and service offerings, expanding its global reach and the events that they support.

Servicing annually 125 events, 10,000 exhibitors and 1.5 million attendees, ITN serves event producers by combining technology with personalized professional services to optimize events. A look at their product set includes:

“The acquisition of ITN as a global provider of cloud-based event management solutions is a major growth opportunity for Aventri,” says Oni Chukwu, CEO of Aventri. “Aventri will significantly extend the mission-critical technology solutions it offers enterprise customers which they need to execute exceptional, profitable events worldwide. We’re thrilled to be having an extremely talented and innovative group from ITN joining the team.”

This is the fourth acquisition Aventri has made in the past three years, following their recent rebrand and the majority investment by private equity firm HGGC. ITN will bring Aventri’s total number of employees to 375+ and add five new global offices.
