Today, I’m excited to announce that LCvista has acquired Conferences i/o, the leading audience engagement and attendance tracking provider for the accounting industry.
Since our founding, we’ve had one goal: to build a single solution for accounting firms to manage all their learning and compliance needs. Conferences i/o helps us realize that goal.
Scott and Lisa first got to know John Pytel back in 2018 and built an integration with Conferences i/o in 2019. Around the same time, Evan and the Prolaera team built their own integration with Conferences i/o. As the teams worked together over the years, we discovered that, in addition to mutual customers, we also shared a strong focus on the customer and an obsession with improving learning and compliance outcomes.
We also found that we genuinely enjoyed each other and that our two teams had similar cultures and values. Like LCvista, Conferences i/o is committed to collaboration and continuous improvement — and integrity is at the foundation of everything they do.
Not only were we impressed with John and his team; we were also impressed with the product they had built and the enthusiasm with which our customers had adopted it. Over time, we realized that the more tightly we integrated our product with theirs, the better the customer experience we could create.
Ultimately, this led us to the realization that we could best meet our mutual customers’ needs by bringing the two companies together as one.
Scott and Lisa broached the idea of combining the two companies last year, and John and I both concluded that it was a “no brainer.” We quickly got down to working out the details with our investors and leadership teams and made it happen. I’m glad I can finally share this news with you.
Together, LCvista and Conferences i/o will continue to focus on meeting our customers’ learning and compliance needs. We’ll continue to be customer obsessed, and we’ll continue to uphold our values of continuous improvement, collaboration and integrity.
