FEATURE: TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION


Merger is just the ticket for Helm Squared


Origin Tickets and OhSoChimp have been running alongside each other since their conception, and in 2017 the brands were rolled under the parent company of Helm Squared. Origin Tickets provides seamless and simple ticketing for


organisers, as well as providing better value for both organisers and ticket buyers. Usage of the product is growing at a rapid pace, with the number of organiser registrations having grown by 200% since 2016. Origin is expected to grow eight times its current size during 2017 with the team also growing throughout the year. Origin Tickets prides itself on flexibility, customising and


creating feature rich platforms that fit organiser needs – setting it apart from other ticketing platforms. OhSoChimp offers live printing and social media services at


events. The company encourages organic brand interaction – boosting reach online and creating long lasting brand engagement. The team have worked with both global brands throughout the UK and local event organisers and universities in the South West. Helm Squared recently expanded into office space three


times the size of its predecessor and intends on developing that Google-esq culture from within. The team of five is due to expand three times over within the next nine months. Jon Catney, 27 year old founder and CEO said: “I’m proud of what we’ve managed to achieve with a relatively small team and I look forward to what the coming year holds.” The Helm Squared HQ is based at Plymouth Science Park.
