Cvent Acquires Reposite to Expand its Global Vendor and Supplier Sourcing Marketplace
6/10/2024
TYSONS, VA – Cvent, an industry-leading meetings, events, and hospitality technology provider, today announced that it has acquired Reposite, an AI-powered online vendor and supplier sourcing platform. Reposite streamlines the meetings and event planning process with its curated database of more than 35,000 group-friendly offerings, robust request for proposal (RFP) creation tools, and AI-powered quote matching solutions. Thousands of event professionals and leading third-party planners rely on Reposite for their vendor sourcing needs. As a long-time leader in hotel and venue sourcing, Cvent – through its acquisition of Reposite – further enhances its vendor and supplier sourcing offerings, enabling event professionals and third-party planners with: Broadened Supplier Discovery and Coordination: More than $16B was sourced through Cvent’s hotel and venue sourcing solutions in 2023. Building on this multi-billion-dollar marketplace, Reposite will extend Cvent’s sourcing offerings with a diverse inventory of vendors across ten unique event-related categories including transportation, restaurants, entertainment, staffing, gifting, and more. In addition, Reposite’s technology will help to grow and expand the Cvent Vendor Marketplace, which offers users a curated network of vendors to support in-person, virtual and hybrid event requirements. AI-Powered Supplier and Vendor Matching: Reposite's AI Matching technology pairs planner RFPs with the best-fit suppliers based on geography, group size, event dates, target audience, and other user preferences. This innovative matching solution removes the manual effort typically required to source and finetune a curated vendor list. Streamlined End-to-End Group and Event Planning: Reposite is purpose-built to power the entire vendor sourcing process – from searching suppliers and generating RFPs, to quote management, customized proposal creation and payments – all within a centralized, easy-to-use workspace. This platform approach streamlines communication and improves efficiency for both event professionals and vendors, ultimately helping deliver greater ROI.
