In what can only be described as unnecessary financing that reminds us of Facebook’s later stage investments, Eventbrite has announced a series Founders Kevin & Juile Hartz will be speaking this week at TNW Conference in Amsterdam, so it will surely be a delight to hear what they have to say about their European plans.
