Leadership
Billetto is a technology company founded by former event organisers and engineers with a simple mission of getting more people to go out more. At the heart of every Billetto event is our event organisers that are always in need for the latest software solution to attract more attendees.
At Billetto we innovate fast because our company decisions are based on the perspective of various organisers that use our platform. Leadership to us is the combination of delivering the right mixture of features requested by our organisers and developing innovative solutions not yet utilised by organisers.
