Success Story

From no system to a complete event management process, they created a better attendee experience.

Connecticut Technology Council is a statewide association comprised of technology oriented companies and institutions, that provides leadership in areas of policy advocacy, community building and assistance for growing companies. Speaking for over 2,000 companies that employ some 200,000 residents, the CTC seeks to provide a strong and urgent voice in support of the creation of a culture of innovation.

Challenge

Connecticut Technology Council Challenge

As part of CTC’s mission, they host events that bring together members of the technology community in both small gatherings and large, well-attended events. Hosting the largest tech events in the state of Connecticut, they needed a system that would be able to handle the complexity of their bigger events. Paige Rasid, Chief Operating Officer of Connecticut Technology Council, says that they needed a professional system that would get rid of the manual changes they had to make in terms of registration, bio information, seating, surveys and other event information. They had no system in place.

It was important to allow the attendees to make their own modifications and take the communication out of the staff’s email. They were looking for a platform that would customize and personalize the event process from registration to their website. By moving to a system that would automate the event process, they would be able to save time and focus on creating new opportunities.

When it came time for the CTC to move from a variety of different tools to a professional event management software system, they chose Stova because of the ease of use and proximity. The increased productivity and efficiency of their large scale events was obvious; specifically when it came to their biggest event of the year, Woman of Innovation. The event celebrates some of Connecticut’s most innovate female minds, who are found through nomination or selfnomination.

“Prior to using Stova the whole entire process was completed through email registration.”
