Lüp Events has been named a winner in the 16th edition of the Eventex Awards, the global benchmark for excellence in events and experience marketing. This year’s competition was the most competitive in the program’s history, featuring a record-breaking 1,405 entries from 58 countries.
Global recognition for Australian innovation
Lüp received recognition in two primary categories, highlighting our commitment to solving complex operational challenges through proprietary technology:


- Bronze in Attendee Management Technology
Awarded for Lüp’s Onsite Badging and Registration Solution. This award recognises our work in delivering the city-wide digital infrastructure for SXSW Sydney. Across 80+ venues, our platform managed tens of thousands of accreditations with real-time synchronisation, ensuring secure access control and a queue-free experience for attendees and organisers alike. - Bronze in Exhibition Technology
Awarded for Lüp’s Facial Recognition. Developed to balance high-security requirements with seamless delegate flow, this system was successfully deployed at major events including the International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) and the Avalon Airshow. By linking biometric identity to registration rights, we have effectively eliminated badge-sharing and reduced entry times to sub-second intervals.
Entries were evaluated by an independent jury of global industry leaders, including senior journalists, association heads, and strategic professionals. To be recognised as a representative from Australia among a massive field of 1,405 global entries is a significant achievement for our team.
“The 16th edition of Eventex Awards brought a record number of entries — and with them, proof that the events industry’s creative ambition has no ceiling,” noted Ovanes Ovanessian, Co-founder of Eventex Awards. “Winning an Eventex award is no small feat, and we congratulate Lüp Events on a truly outstanding achievement.”
Driving the industry forward
Our focus has always been on providing organisers with total transparency and exhibitors with guaranteed lead integrity. These awards validate our Privacy First and Queue Killer frameworks, proving that sophisticated security and high-speed efficiency can coexist in the most demanding environments.
“We’ve always believed that high-level security shouldn’t come at the cost of a poor attendee experience. Whether it’s preventing badge-swapping at a defence expo or managing 100+ venues across Sydney, our tech is built to keep things moving. To have our innovation recognised by a global jury is a testament to the hard work of our entire team,” says Neeshil Pabari, Founder and Managing Director at Lüp Events.
What’s next?
Lüp is proud of this milestone and we shall continue bringing these award-winning event technology to high-profile projects in Asia Pacific, Europe & the Middle East and Africa. We look forward to continuing to set new standards for security and attendee experience across the globe.
