Spotie, A Mobile LBS to Tell You Where the Cool Events Are

When you travel around different cities, you want to know quickly what cool events are happening around you. Many LBS apps like Foursquare, have a focus on sharing where you are with friends and family. But a new start-up called Spotie.com, is twisting the idea to focus on letting users discover what events are happening around you. It is a similar concept to the Sydney based start-up called Drumo, which let’s users discover their own city, or Privy, which let’s users connect with other members in a different city.

Spotie is based in Croatia and is a five person founder team made up of Mateo Perak, Ivan Burazin, Marjan Žitnik, Nebojša Veron and Mislav Tomić. All come from an entrepreneurial background and love to work on new ideas. Perak is a founder at Booking IT, Burazin is a co-founder at Codeanywhere, Žitnik is a Webstart Contest winner.

Ivan says that “- Spotie is Location Based Social network for events. We are aiming to become leading global location based service and social network for events.   There is no single application or service which can provide us with location based information about all
kind of events on our smart phones, and which is fully social media integrated. Location based services provides you with information about location, not about events happening on that location.
