Eventbrite buy could mean more Cork jobs

Global online ticketing firm Eventbrite has cemented its place as one of Europe’s largest ticketing providers following the purchase of Dutch company Ticketscript — which could mean expansion at its Cork base in the future.

San Francisco-headquartered Eventbrite, which covers more than 2 million events each year, bought Ticketscript, one of Europe’s largest self-service ticketing providers.

It allows event organisers to create an online page for their events, to sell tickets, promote and manage events, and analyse results.
