Recognition

History

The company was founded in 2007 by Joshua Dziabiak and Lynsie Campbell, initially as an event registration database. The pair later focused their efforts on creating a web-based ticketing solution after realizing the need for better ticketing. Prior to forming the company, Dziabiak met Campbell while working together at Spreadshirt, an online platform for creating and selling personalized apparel.[7]

On July 31, 2017, ShowClix received a strategic investment by Providence Strategic Growth (“PSG”), the growth equity affiliate of Providence Equity Partners, a global private equity firm with more than $50 billion in assets under management.[8] With that investment, ShowClix and the powerful CRM platform PatronManager became the first two brands of Patron Technology. Subsequent brands include the self-serve ticketing platform Ticketleap, the integrated ticketing and patron management platform SeatAdvisor, the web and mobile development company Greencopper, and the experiential marketing technology company Thuzi. Under Patron Technology, these products have come together to become one of the largest, leading event companies today.

Currently, Brian Arnone is the President and COO of ShowClix and the CRO of Patron Technology, and Nate Good is the CTO of ShowClix and Patron Technology.[9]
