About EVENTURA

Home » About Us

Where it all began

Eventura was founded in 2003 by our CEO, Chris Houghton, following a stellar career working for some of the world’s best-known technology names. His vision was to provide the SME market with the technology they need to succeed as, at the time, most systems with advanced functionality were reserved for large firms.

Whilst this vision has evolved, the sentiment has remained the same – unlocking the potential of other organisations by building long term relationships, sharing customer journeys and providing solutions for success.
