Simple and secure event management with Oniva

With Zoon, all event communication can be digitized with a single solution: from the invitation to the website to the event check-in and thank you email. Specific settings allow you to customize the solution to the needs of your own organization.

Zoon was founded in 2019 to develop Swisscom's event management software into a market-ready product. "We quickly realized that Swisscom's challenges in event management also exist in other companies," says Marc Blindenbacher, the new CEO of Oniva AG. Organizations often have many events:In addition to marketing events or conferences, training sessions, for example, also have a strong event character from a procedural point of view. "With our solution, organizations can cover almost all events and save up to 80% of their previous time expenditure." More than 5,000 events with over 1 million participants have already been handled via Zoon. In addition to Swisscom, companies such as Axpo, Canton Vaud, Mepha Pharma and SBB rely on the solution.

Zoon becomes Oniva

From March 1, 2024, Zoon will become an independent spin-off called Oniva AG. The company will be managed by the existing team with many years of expertise in the event management software sector. The founders and members of the management team are Marc Blindenbacher, Anna Fredholm and Simon Gadient.

"We will continue to develop the existing solution within Oniva to make organizing events even easier and more efficient for everyone in the company," says Anna Fredholm, responsible for product development. In many cases, the role of event manager is only taken on temporarily or once a year. That's why we attach great importance to a user-friendly and secure solution," says Anna Fredholm. For example, Oniva offers the function to anonymize personal data after an event at the touch of a button.
