Ticket9 Raises Fresh Capital To Expand Into Europe, Redefining The Future Of Live Experiences

In a major boost to India’s fast-growing event-tech ecosystem, Ticket9, a Coimbatore-based startup known for transforming how live experiences are managed and discovered, has raised a fresh round of capital to accelerate its next phase of growth. The new funding will enable the company to expand operations into Europe, enhance its AI-driven personalization capabilities, and strengthen its partnerships with creators, organizers, and cultural boards across global markets. Bridging Technology and Live Experiences Founded in 2022 by Yazhini Shanmugam and Santhos Premraj, Ticket9 has quickly evolved into a next-generation SaaS platform built to simplify the event lifecycle from creation and marketing to ticketing and management. Speaking on the development, Yazhini Shanmugam, Founder & CEO, said, “This expansion reflects the trust and momentum we’ve built over the past few years. From India to Europe, our mission remains the same to simplify live events through technology and connect people through experiences that matter.” The platform’s latest innovation, Ticket9 RSVP, offers event organizers the ability to run invitation-based, community-first experiences, helping them curate exclusive audiences and deliver more personalized, secure, and premium gatherings. Scaling Globally With Proven Technology Over the last two years, Ticket9 has powered thousands of events across India, spanning music concerts, marathons, corporate summits, and cultural festivals. The company’s technology has also been tested on large-scale international stages, including Anirudh’s “Hukum” concert in Malaysia, which successfully managed over 22,000 bookings underscoring Ticket9’s scalability and reliability for global deployments. “Ticket9 is transforming the events landscape with technology that simplifies, connects, and enhances every experience. The platform makes it effortless for organisers and delightful for users to discover and enjoy events like never before. Backed by a brilliant team, I see enormous potential for this platform to lead the industry,” said Nayanthara, an early backer and supporter of the brand. A Step Into Europe The company’s European expansion represents its first international chapter and a strategic step towards building a global footprint. Ticket9 plans to roll out its RSVP model to a select group of organizers in key European markets before launching more widely across India and other emerging regions. “We’re building an ecosystem that unites everyone in the live event journey from artists and promoters to brands and audiences. The world of live experiences is about to get a whole lot more connected,” added Santhos Premraj, Co-founder of Ticket9.
