A fast-growing IT service provider, Knit Technologies Founder, Mr Fela Bank-Olemoh, says digital technology has the potential to transform commerce and business in Nigeria.
Speaking at the unveiling of a listing and ticketing app, called Knit, Olemoh stated that increased access to markets through digital platforms would help businesses to reach new customers and markets more easily and cost-effectively.
Olemoh, in a statement, revealed that the Knit app used location-driven and interest-based technology to connect people to events and activities.
The statement added, “Knit enables people to discover and engage in events and activities through a user-friendly platform. It combines location-based event discovery, interest-based recommendations, social networking, analytics, and ticketing features, making it the go-to app for anyone looking to find and attend exciting local events, create and monetise their events, as well as connect with like-minded individuals.
He added, “We have a truly world-class app and we are more than thrilled to introduce the app to Nigeria and beyond. Our goal is to further simplify the process of both organising and attending events. However, our mission extends beyond the events themselves; it has always been about fostering meaningful connections within local communities. With Knit, we have an app that allows individuals to efficiently create or discover events, secure tickets to their favourite shows and establish meaningful connections.”
Bank-Olemoh emphasised that the app was born out of an understanding of the pain points within the events industry and a resolve to proffer solutions through distinctive features which could allow event organisers to create events and sell out tickets fast.”
Knit has some notable features which include social networking features, enabling users to chat, send videos, etc to their connections in-app, weather forecast features for event organisers, and QR code integration.
