Bootstrapped Sri Lankan start-up Connect Ville enters event tech space

A new contender has officially entered the event technology arena. Connect Ville, a bootstrapped Sri Lankan startup, has launched its innovative event management and lifestyle platform at www.connectville.io.

By identifying and addressing a critical gap in the market—the misconception of events as a single industry rather than a vertical across all sectors—Connect Ville is poised for significant growth, with plans to raise a seed round investment in the coming months.
