ACCESS CONTROL

Getting in.
Getting out.
Quickly. Safely.

Access Control is a life-and-death thing. We are at the forefront of how thousands of people enter and exit safely — every door, every scan, every minute. At CHAN 2024 we ran access control across two stadiums, live, simultaneously — and we're constantly innovating to keep the entry experience smooth, fast and stress-free.

MOOKH CAPITAL (ACEF) · OTA KOPA FUND

Data-driven
financing for
the next show.

Most great events don't fail for lack of audience — they fail for lack of working capital. MOOKH Capital is powered by our own data engine: we look at every organizer's transaction history and ticket-sale frequency to underwrite, in minutes, how much capital they can access.

01
Underwritten by your real sales data
02
Pre-event capital for venue, marketing, talent
03
Repaid at the door, from future ticket sales

Built with partners like HEVA — for the creative economy
