While digital tickets have become the norm, challenges around security and ticket authentication still remain. Vipass aims to push event tech into its next phase by solving this issue and offering enhanced convenience through a streamlined approach and even greater security for event-goers and organizers alike. About Vipass Led by entrepreneur Kwaku Otchere, founder and CEO, Vipass is an events platform that combines secure digital solutions with a user-centric design to improve how event attendees experience live music and entertainment. Guided by Otchere's vision to redefine ticketing and live event engagement, this platform aims to create meaningful connections between event attendees and organizers to ensure a seamless and unforgettable experience. "Our mission is to redefine what ticketing means by creating a more connected, immersive experience that goes beyond the transaction,"
-Otchere. The forward-thinking platform brings together ticketing, fan engagement, and digital innovation that enhance the entire event journey—not just the transaction. The Vipass system uses real-time engagement and communication, sending attendees personalized updates and event information before and during the event to create an interactive and integrated live event experience. This progressive ticketing system also addresses the primary concerns of ticketing: securing and authenticating a user's ticket. With physical tickets possibly leading to difficulties for both organizers and attendees, digital tickets have become a simpler method for authenticating a user's ticket. Vipass has a security guarantee, providing relief for attendees excited for an entertaining experience, with the platform's system eliminating fraud by ensuring every ticket is tied to a verified user and preventing unauthorized resale. Kwaku Otchere: Shaping the Future of Live Events Kwaku, whose career spans leadership roles at Apple and The Walt Disney Company, is now using his skills to elevate live events through Vipass. His journey, from his roots in Ghana to leading teams of professionals from around the world, shows his resilience, creativity, and drive to make a lasting impact. Kwaku founded Vipass with the mission to address a key issue in live events: a recurring disconnect where transactional ticketing overshadowed the potential for deeper engagement. Inspired by a personal desire to create meaning from loss, he had the vision to create a platform that would bridge this gap and create a more immersive, personalized journey for both event-goers and organizers. Past Successes and Future Goals Vipass's digital innovation in ticketing and event experiences is enhancing personalization, security, and fan engagement at music festivals and entertainment events across the globe. At last year's NYE event in Prague, Vipass teamed up with WeLit, which is one of the Czech Republic's leading entertainment brands and is known for delivering high-energy events that bring people together in celebration. With WeLit's New Year's Eve events famously high-profile and lavish, Vipass's collaborative efforts demonstrated how much easier the ticketing process can be with their innovative, secure, and seamless ticketing platform. With a major upcoming collaboration on the way, this platform aims to expand and influence the event industry in 2025. Stay tuned for the announcement of this major collaboration, which will showcase the next step in Vipass's growth and impact on the event technology space.
