Toronto, ON – December 10, 2025 – AudienceView has been named a Gold winner in Most Innovative Company of the Year – Medium category in Best in Biz Awards 2025, one of the most prestigious business awards in North America and globally.
The judges were notably impressed by the company’s forward-thinking solutions:
“The AudienceView team has delivered smart, timely solutions to some of the toughest challenges facing the live events industry—particularly the accelerating threat of fraud. Their new Payments solution alone blocked an exceptional $20 million in fraudulent transactions within just two months of launch. The platform also proved exceptionally reliable during major on-sales like the Ravinia Festival, which sold 44,000 tickets in an hour with more than 28,000 fans in queue. That level of performance is critical for high-demand events where fans expect a seamless experience. AudienceView’s unified marketing tools further stood out for simplifying operations and saving organizers valuable time and resources.”
Since the program’s inception in 2011, winners in Best in Biz Awards have been determined by independent judging panels assembled each year from some of the most respected national and local newspapers, TV and radio outlets, and business, consumer, technology and trade publications in North America. By combining the unparalleled expertise and experience of the top-notch editors and reporters with the vast diversity of outlets they represent, Best in Biz Awards has always offered the most objective and unbiased judging, beyond programs scored by regular business professionals or by writers from one publication. The 2025 judging panel included, among others, writers and contributors to Associated Press, Barron’s, Consumer Affairs, eWeek, Forbes, Globe and Mail, Inc., MediaPost, New York Times, Ottawa Citizen, and Wired.
“Preparing our submission was an inspiring opportunity to reflect on everything our team has accomplished this year,” noted Tara Carroll, Manager of Projects and Communication at AudienceView. “Pulling together the materials reminded us just how much collective effort goes into continually strengthening our platform and ensuring our clients have the best possible product. Being recognized for that hard work is incredibly meaningful, and it reinforces our commitment to delivering innovative, reliable solutions for the live events community.”
For 15 years, Best in Biz Awards’ press judges have faced the incredible challenge of determining winners among equally compelling entries with varying strengths – and the 15th annual edition has been no different. This year’s winners’ demonstrate a wide range of innovations, including a continuation of the trend of innovative AI uses across various industries; continued expansion of workplace benefits and diversity and employee wellbeing programs offered; and last but not least, increasing community involvement and unwavering dedication to environmental responsibility causes.
“Best in Biz Awards has seen entries from companies small and large, from every corner of the United States and Canada, and from industries as diverse as AI and cosmetics through logistics and retail to software and waste management. We’ve seen impressive entries both in years of incredible economic expansion and growth and in those difficult and challenging pandemic years,” said Best in Biz Awards staff. “As we mark our 15th annual edition, we are exceedingly proud of our winners, many of whom have grown exponentially, got acquired or went public since winning one of our awards. However, besides their impressive growth and innovation, what has always set Best in Biz Awards winners apart has been the positive impact and change they bring about for their employees, clients and communities – and it is that positive impact of Best in Biz Awards winners over the past 15 years that we are most proud of.”
