The Power of Connections in the Ticketing Business

In my life as an entrepreneur, I’ve learned many things. But if there’s one lesson that stands out, it’s this: nothing is more powerful than connections. Technology evolves, markets shift, and industries change, but at the core of every deal, every innovation, and every success—there are people. And connecting with people is what truly drives progress.

That’s why my recent trip to New York was so much more than just attending INTIX. I saw it as an opportunity to meet face-to-face with long-term partners, clients, and industry leaders—some of whom I’ve been working with for years. These moments matter because I don’t see the people I work with as just clients, and they don’t see me as just a service provider. Since day one at 3D Digital Venue, my team and I believed in building relationships, not transactions. I’ve always aimed for partners who trust me enough to share their real challenges, because that’s where the best solutions come from.

This mindset has led to multi-year contracts—some spanning for more than five years—and, more importantly, to partnerships where we’re constantly collaborating to solve real industry problems. My time in New York only reinforced this.

While there, I met with major organizations like MLB, NBA, and NHL teams—big names, right? But what made those conversations exciting wasn’t just who was in the room, but what they were willing to share. They opened up about their challenges, goals, and needs in ticketing, fan experience, and innovation. And that’s when I knew I had something to offer.

For the past few months, we’ve been developing a groundbreaking solution that will transform how VIP and premium amenities are sold. While I can’t reveal all the details just yet, I can share this: it will seamlessly integrate premium experiences into the ticketing ecosystem. Today, most ticketing platforms prioritize general admission sales, forcing venues to manage VIP experiences through disconnected systems. But what if that changed? What if every 3D Digital Venue web application could not only display VIP amenities but also link them directly to seating areas, streamlining the purchase experience? That’s exactly what we’re building—an Amenity Management System that unifies premium offerings, enhances 3D venue interactions, and unlocks new revenue opportunities for venues and teams alike.?

And here’s the thing—I wouldn’t have had this idea if I wasn’t connected to the right people. If these partners hadn’t trusted me enough to share their pain points, I wouldn’t have had the insights to start building something truly impactful.

That’s why I believe so strongly in relationships. Because when you have the right ones, you don’t just sell technology—you create solutions that actually matter.

If you’re in the venue and ticketing space and want to be part of what’s next—let’s talk.?
