About Lenos
 
Omnichannel Event Engagement Platform 
 
Our Story
In 1999, Debra Chong and Patti Tackeff founded Lenos to develop a software solution to create event marketing websites.  They saw a need for an alternative to custom coding or rigid template systems.  Custom coding was too expensive and time-consuming and templates were too inflexible and offered limited functionality.  
 
By late 2000, Lenos introduced a more intuitive, faster and better way to create event websites:
Lenos Studio 
  • An event content management solution that delights novices and experts alike;
  • A no-coding, elegantly intuitive visual designer for drag & drop, fast site creation;  
  • Editable account templates for novices site creators, and a blank canvas for experts;  
  • Powerful administrative controls with sophisticated, real-time reports and analytics;
  • White-labelled, Privacy-first based on Privacy by design/default principals;
Fast forward to 2021 and our 4th generation:  
  • an all-in-one, omnichannel comprehensive platform with real-time data interoperability between devices (web, tablet, app), touchpoints and channels (hybrid, virtual and in-person).
    A little personal history - just imagine, Deb's high school counselor told her she had to learn to type to get a job.  Instead, she asked the school principal for a new counselor and never looked back.
