A new app called Broadcast helps Oslo residents and visitors navigate over 10,000 annual music events by providing detailed information about the events and ticket availability.
Oslo struggles with a lack of comprehensive information about its more than 10,000 annual music events. To address this issue, three entrepreneurs developed the app Broadcast, which efficiently consolidates event details, ticket availability, and locations for users. The app has quickly gained traction, amassing over one million clicks and is set to expand into other Nordic cities as well.
Broadcast not only provides a platform for users to discover events but also allows them to purchase tickets directly through the app, making it a convenient tool for music lovers in the city's vibrant cultural scene. Revenue for the app is generated from event organizers, ensuring that the service remains free for the end-users, thus broadening its accessibility and utility. As a result, Broadcast has become an essential tool for anyone looking to navigate Oslo's music landscape efficiently.
Stine Mari Røverdatter, one of the founders, reflects on the initial challenges her team faced, including how easy it was to overlook exciting events that had already occurred. The app has filled a significant gap by ensuring that users are continually updated on performances they may want to attend, demonstrating a successful intersection of technology and culture in Oslo's evolving social landscape.
