Our Story

Built by students,
for students.

Eventifies was born in Eindhoven from a simple, shared frustration: great events everywhere, but nobody to go with. We interviewed 30+ students and heard the same story — and decided to fix it.

How We Got Here

The moment we knew
this mattered.

In over 30 interviews with students at TU/e and Fontys, we heard the same story: people wanting to go out, but staying home because they had nobody to go with. The problem was especially sharp for international students — new to the city, small social circle, high desire to connect.

Event organizers like Louai (Kairo Nights) and Javier (Comoencasa) confirmed the other side: attendance drops when potential attendees can't find companions. We saw an opportunity to fix both sides of the problem at once.

Our Values

What drives us.

01

Community First

Every decision we make is guided by what's best for the people using Eventifies — not engagement metrics or ad revenue.

02

Safe by Design

Trust and safety aren't features we add — they're the foundation. Verified profiles and community groups are core to our architecture.

03

Local Relevance

We start hyper-local in Eindhoven because depth of community beats breadth. Real connections happen when the network is small and trusted.
