Event Technology Awards London 2026

Finalists on both sides of the booking.

Most platforms are judged on one half of the job. Once for the technology that finds venues. Once for the technology that helps venues sell.

BEST VENUE BOOKING SOLUTION

Finding a venue is one of the most opaque jobs at work. AI made it more confusing, not less.

Almost every tool now claims to find the best venues, and the results are often limited and unreliable. Hire Space is built for the opposite outcome: the right venue found, priced, booked and billed through one platform, by technology we openly hold to account.

See the whole market, not a database Other tools only show venues that signed up to them, so you never see the best option, only the most promoted. Deep Venue Research runs over twenty searches at once and verifies hundreds of venues are real and on brief, from AI protected by two granted UK patents.
Know the price before you enquire The biggest delay in event planning is waiting for quotes. Instant Quotes returns a data-backed price the moment you brief, within 10 seconds, built from over a decade of real booking data. A week of back and forth becomes a decision you can make now.
Trust you can prove AI venue tools invent venues, get details like capacity, price or access wrong, or suggest venues that miss the brief. In our blind VenueBench benchmark, Deep Venue Research finished first of seven, with a perfect trust score and every shortlisted venue accurate and on brief.
Booked and billed Finding the venue is only half the job. Standardised contracting removes the legal back and forth, and every booking runs through one supplier rather than a new venue to onboard and pay each time, with our Concierge team on hand throughout.
“Hire Space's technology helps us narrow venue options rapidly against a brief. It'll surface any venue, anywhere in the world, with a high degree of accuracy. It's a step change in efficiency for event planning and frees up our team to focus on core elements of their role.”
Luke Nelson, Managing Director, Head of International Sustainability, JP Morgan

BEST SALES TECHNOLOGY

Running a venue is relentless. A small team juggles enquiries, proposals, pricing, contracts and live events at once.

Hire Space takes the weight off, so winning business gets easier and a venue's time goes where it matters. Part software, part people.

Leads worth your time Venues do not need more enquiries, they need the right ones. Each venue sets its own qualification criteria, minimum guests, event types and a budget floor, applied wherever a lead comes from. Instant, data-backed pricing pre-qualifies on budget too.
Be seen for the work you want Boost your visibility for the briefs you most want to win, and stand out with searchable badges for special offers, recent refurbishments and new openings.
Proposals, made lighter Send your offer in whatever format suits you, and we build it into one polished presentation the client can compare at a glance, priced with your own private rules built in.
Know how to win more Venue Intelligence benchmarks your proposals against the market, reads every brief to surface trends and recommendations, and lets you test new pricing without a live enquiry.
Paperwork and people Contracts, e-signing, invoicing and payment run through one place, and on the biggest events our Concierge team steps in on the venue's behalf.
“What sets Hire Space apart is the quality of the enquiries. The technology does the hard work of matching us to the right event bookers before they ever reach us, so the leads that land in our inbox are genuinely relevant. Our conversion rates speak for themselves.”
Glenn Mainwaring, Business Development Manager, Barbican Centre
