Last night at tech incubator TQ, The Next Web and Adyen announced the winner of the 2017 Tech5. The fastest growing startup over the past two years was Tiqets, the same as last year. A unique achievement as this is the first time in its history that a company has won the prize twice in a row.
This year saw strong competition yet again, with Bloomon, Bux, Kobi Digital, and Srprs.me all in the Top 5. But for the second year in a row, Tiqets outgrew them all. In fact, thanks to rapid expansion into three continents and a growing demand for mobile admission tickets, Tiqets was able to grow even faster than last year!
Tiqets CEO Luuc Elzinga said: "I'm so proud of what our amazing team has accomplished in the last year. Our revenue grew exponentially, but most importantly we helped bring more people into the best cultural venues worldwide. We were also able to help those venues improve their visibility, with partners and the public, and provide them with data-driven insights about customer behaviour."
“Winning Tech5 for the second time in a row is an enormous compliment to Tiqets on their dedication and hard work. It highlights Amsterdam’s healthy startup climate. Let’s see if they can bring the European title to the Netherlands this time!” says Roelant Prins, CCO of Adyen.
