Building the operating system for the €400B events economy.
OnlyVIP (Luxodo LLC) is raising a €62M Series A to accelerate its category-defining B2B platform for event professionals, agencies, concierges and promoters.
A vertical B2B SaaS + marketplace for the world's most exclusive events.
The premium events market is fragmented, offline-first, and starved of purpose-built software. Event agencies, concierges and promoters coordinate suppliers over WhatsApp, invoice through spreadsheets, and lose margin to opaque intermediaries. OnlyVIP replaces that stack with a single operating system: CRM, venue directory, production tools, contracts, and automated payouts — plus access to a curated global network of venues, brands and buyers.
We combine recurring SaaS revenue (seat licenses per workspace) with a high-margin transaction layer (payments, commissions, marketplace fees). This dual engine mirrors the economics of Shopify, Toast and MindBody — applied to a discretionary, high-ticket vertical with brand-driven network effects.
Problem, product, model, moat.
Event professionals run six-figure productions on consumer tools. There is no vertical software for curated, high-ticket, invite-only events — leaving €10B+ of margin trapped in manual work.
OnlyVIP is a B2B workspace: pipeline CRM, venue & supplier directory, quote & contract builder, guest management, payments, commissions, and analytics — accessible only by invitation.
1) Seat-based SaaS (Independent €0 · Agency €490/mo · Enterprise custom). 2) Transaction fees on GMV processed. 3) Marketplace commissions on introduced supply. 4) Optional white-label & API.
Curated invite-only supply, exclusive venue relationships, brand association with top-tier events, and switching costs from embedded financial workflows.
Founder-led enterprise sales, referral loops inside agencies, presence at Grand Prix / Cannes / Art Basel, and a private community that compounds retention.
Every workspace strengthens the network: more venues → better inventory → more agencies → more GMV → better data → better product.
A €400B market moving from analog to platform-native.
The global events industry is projected to exceed €1 trillion by 2035 (Allied Market Research). Premium, corporate and hospitality-driven events represent the fastest-growing segment — and the least digitized. Post-pandemic, in-person experiences returned as the highest-ROI channel for brands, sports rights holders and luxury houses.

Transparent on what could go wrong.

Top venues drive demand. Mitigation: exclusive partnerships, category expansion, network effects.
Cross-border payouts require licensing. Mitigation: licensed PSP partners; EMI license roadmap 2027.
Legacy CRMs and horizontal SaaS. Mitigation: vertical depth, curated network moat, brand.
