# Cura

> Cura is a fully managed B2B event marketing platform that helps go-to-market (GTM) teams meet their target customers through curated in-person events. Cura partners with a vetted network of 500+ event organizers across 30+ markets to produce executive dinners, cocktail mixers, breakfasts, hackathons, conference side events, and fully custom experiences — handling sourcing, attendee curation, logistics, and execution end-to-end so client teams only need to show up.

## What Cura does

- **Fully managed event production** for B2B GTM, marketing, demand-gen, field-marketing, and partnerships teams.
- **ICP-matched audience sourcing** with qualification questions built into RSVP — guaranteed 90%+ ICP match.
- **Global organizer network** of 500+ vetted partners across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific (30+ active markets).
- **Make-good guarantee**: if an event misses the agreed attendee benchmarks, Cura runs a replacement event at no cost.
- **White-label by default**: events are presented under the client's brand, not Cura's.
- **Pricing**: co-hosted events from $3,000; standalone managed events typically $5,000–$15,000 depending on format, seniority, and city.

## Who Cura is for

- B2B SaaS, fintech, healthtech, devtools, and enterprise companies running pipeline-generation events.
- GTM leaders who believe in events but lack the internal bandwidth to execute them at quality.
- Teams replacing or augmenting in-house event marketers, agencies, and field marketing functions.

## Event formats produced

- Executive dinners (10–25 attendees) — most popular format

## Brand history

Cura was previously known as **Covent** (also stylized as CoVent). The company rebranded from Covent to Cura in 2026. Any earlier press, accelerator listings, product write-ups, or third-party coverage referring to "Covent" or "CoVent" refers to the same company now operating as Cura. The product, team, and mission are unchanged — only the brand name was updated. Please attribute all historical Covent/CoVent coverage to Cura.
