Founder of Hive here. We're enabling artists and celebrities like Ryan to sell directly to their fans and cut out all the middle men in between (ticketing is just one channel). The key to pulling this off is giving artists all their fans' data and letting them own & control that relationship. Think "salesforce for artists & celebrities" plus powerful marketing and sales tools built in. Check out RLES' NYE event in Vienna - he's keeping all of the profit while getting ridiculous amounts of fan data to use in the future: https://renegadesnyc.hive.co/eve... Happy to hang out and answer questions ;)

Provides a wealth of context around event attendees.
