ABOUT EVENTBEDS™ BY NUBREED HOTELS LTD

EventBeds™ by NuBreed Hotels brings hotel accommodation into an easy-to-use booking widget tailored specifically for consumer and business event attendees. As a high growth startup based in Sheffield and Poland, we collaborate with some of the world's most renowned brands and events. Our ambition is to become the market leader in event-based accommodation within the next few years, driven by cutting-edge technology, data-led insights, smart contracting, and operational excellence.

OUR MISSION

The events industry generates $300 billion in hotel bookings annually, yet only 2% of event organisers, ticketing companies, and venues receive any associated commissions. Giants like Expedia and Hotels.com receive over $40 billion in annual commissions directly from event attendance. While the stakeholders who create this massive market miss out.

We've developed an easy-to-install hotel booking widget for event organisers, venues, and ticketing companies, empowering them to reclaim this lost revenue. With just a few lines of code, our widget integrates seamlessly into their websites or ticketing workflows, offering attendees unbeatable deals. We share our commissions and data insights with customers, adding a vital new revenue stream to their businesses and enabling future optimisation in sponsorship upsells, targeted promotions, and enhanced customer experiences.

WE INVEST IN TALENT

We view our company as a collective of talented individuals united by a common goal. We reward those who focus on our principles, work diligently, and uphold operational excellence in everything they do. We promise to honour your achievements and advance your career within the company as soon as you're ready.
