“While launching Happitoo, we realized the restaurants and the nightclubs had much more to offer and the patrons had much more to look forward to. We considered this as a big opportunity as there was no app dedicated to discovery of great nightout experiences across India” says Raviraj Meena, co-founder of Happitoo, an IIT Bombay graduate.
“As it turns out, India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world with a very large consuming populace wanting to go out and having a great time over food, drinks and live experiences. At the same time, there are way too many nightspots having a lot more to offer and constantly looking for relevant audiences. We realized the problem is one of discovery and the other is about the ability to make the right choice basis the companion, occasion or demographics. We saw this as very big opportunity and got to commit ourselves in building a platform that helps users plan their nightouts at lightning speed on the back of profiling and segmentation of users and venues, thereby delivering relevant recommendations. Our most popular section on the app is MAKE MY NIGHT, used by 97% of all users.” says Hemant Jain, co-founder of Happitoo, a veteran in digital media and mobile entertainment space
