Cresco is pleased to have advised Exhibitly on its €1.4 million pre-seed funding round led by New School VC, alongside 100IN, Allusion and several experienced angel investors.
Founded in 2025 by Hendrik Franck and Brent Coppens, Exhibitly develops an AI-powered solution that personalizes trade fair and event websites for visitors. By creating tailored event experiences based on user profiles, the company helps organizers improve engagement and navigate increasingly complex event ecosystems.
In just nine months since launch, Exhibitly has already signed 114 events across Europe, the UK, the US, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, with customers including Informa, Easyfairs, Kortrijk Expo and Dubai World Trade Centre.
The funding round will support the company’s ambitious international growth plans and further development of its broader data intelligence platform for the event industry.
Congratulations to Hendrik Franck, Brent Coppens and the entire Exhibitly team on this important milestone, and thank you to all parties involved for the pleasant collaboration.
