Company Overview

Evention was founded in 2004 by 3 former J.D. Edwards and PeopleSoft employees under the name Vitruvian Solutions.  The company catered towards developing unique and groundbreaking software solutions with an aim towards "perfect design" as suggested by the "Vitruvian" name (one of Leonardo da Vinci's most famous drawings depicting divine proportions).  The Evention product was quickly born working intially with marquee hotels in Chicago.  Word about Evention spread within Chicago and then across North America as Evention became the recognized leader in automating cumbersome back-off hospitality functions including gratuity distributions, cash management, and scheduling.
