Evite’s New Platform Features a Hidden Function for Exhibitors
May 29, 2019
Digital invitation platform Evite has launched Evite Pro, a new custom platform designed to simplify and streamline the event planning and execution process for professional event organizers.
Evite Pro allows planners to manage the entirety of an event, including designing and sending invitations, tracking attendee status, managing ongoing guest communications, and accessing event analytics including deliverability and RSVP rate with real-time data.
Geared to meet the needs of small- to mid-size companies, the new platform allows planners to invite up to 2,500 guests per event, see who has viewed the invitation (or who may have gotten an undeliverable invitation) and nudge guests to RSVP.
Even better, exhibitors can use the app on the showfloor to track who visits their booths, according to Evite officials.
“Many of our customers are business professionals or organizers in their communities who have long used Evite as a tool for planning their company events,” said Victor Cho, CEO of Evite. “We realized through customer feedback that we needed to provide a specialized solution to address our customers’ business requirements.”
He continued, “Now, those customers can use Evite Pro to manage a wide range of events throughout the year, with full access to every Evite invitation on our platform and all of the customizations they already know and love.”
Evite Pro features include:
· Seamless event management: Send and update anytime, anywhere
· Elevated insight: Track delivery and RSVPs with real-time performance analytics
· Customizable design: Companies can include logo and colors
· Large-scale event capability: Invite up to 2,500 guests per event
· Multichannel delivery options: Send invitations via email, text or shareable link
· Bypass spam filters: Ensure invitations are sent to recipients’ inboxes
Other recent Evite products that are available to all Evite users, including Evite Pro subscribers, include the Evite Donations tool, which enables Evite customers to use any event as an opportunity to donate to a charity or crowdfund for a personal cause; and Evite Messages, which allows hosts and guests to communicate about events.
Evite Pro is currently available for an annual subscription. To learn more, check out this video.

Partner Voices
Every day, MGM Resorts hosts organizations and individuals from around the world with a diverse array of business purposes, needs and expectations. But they all have one thing in common—a host committed to making their meetings sustainable and unforgettable through close partnership and responsible meeting practices.
Harnessing the Sun
Meetings at MGM Resorts are predominantly powered by the sun, thanks to its innovative 100-megawatt solar array. As the largest directly sourced renewable electricity project in the hospitality industry, the solar array features 323,000 panels and produces up to 100% of MGM Resorts’ daytime power needs in Las Vegas.* Built in 2021, the solar array reduces the carbon footprint of meetings—and all of MGM Resorts—while still delivering an enlightening and electrifying guest experience.
Leading Water Stewardship
Knowing water is essential to operations, guests and employees, MGM Resorts has long employed various conservation measures and has doubled down on its commitment in recent years to become a leading corporate water steward. In 2022, MGM Resorts President and CEO Bill Hornbuckle signed the CEO Water Mandate, a United National Global Compact, becoming the first gaming company to endorse the initiative. The company replaced more than 200,000 square feet of real grass with drought-tolerant landscaping in Las Vegas and pledged to reduce water use by 33% by 2025 and by 35% by 2030. Between 2007 and 2022, MGM Resorts saved more than 6 billion gallons of water through water conservation.
Fostering Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
MGM Resorts serves a world of diverse people, perspectives and experiences by cultivating a workforce culture that embraces all of humanity. From mindful recruitment and hiring practices to meaningful social responsibility initiatives, MGM Resorts is a welcoming and inclusive space for veterans, individuals with disabilities, people from diverse backgrounds, LGBTQ+ community members and more. The company’s commitment to supplier diversity drives innovation by extending competitive opportunities to local and diverse-owned suppliers, while the MGM Resorts Supplier Diversity Mentorship Program provides diverse-owned businesses tools and resources to enhance and grow their businesses.
Paying it Forward
MGM Resorts knows that great companies must serve the greater good. That’s why paying it forward is part of its approach to meetings and events. Through the Feeding Forward Program, MGM Resorts collects and preserves unserved and untouched food from conventions held at its properties, then safely donates to food-insecure people through a partnership with Three Square, Southern Nevada’s primary food bank. Since 2016, MGM Resorts has donated more than 3.7 million meals, with a goal of 5 million meal donations by 2025. Donations include unserved perishable prepared foods from events, perishable unprepared food from MGM Resorts’ kitchens and nonperishable food items from minibars and warehouses.
From world-class venues and experiences to industry leading responsible meeting practices, MGM Resorts is proud to host meaningful and sustainable events.
