The Perfect Online Event Calendar: Now for Everyone
1. The Perfect Online Event Calendar:
Now for Everyone
The Localist Story
http://localist.com
2. Once upon a time…
In early 2008, Nate Mook and Myke
Nahorniak, Localist’s founders, were in Los
Angeles for a conference. Afterwards, they
wanted to go out to a cool bar in town.
Myke and Nate, happy because they’re about to go to a cool
bar.
3. Unfortunately…
At the time, there was no way to
see where the truly great places
were, and equally
important, where everyone else
at the conference was planning
to go.
4. Localist was born from that problem
Localist started as a destination site, serving as a resource
for metropolitan areas to help people discover:
•All the events that were happening
•Who was going
•What was going on right now

5. Despite huge interest from audiences
in our launch cities…
Creating and curating
content was an ongoing
challenge. Missing just a
single event made keeping
visitors returning a
challenge.

6. That’s when we decided to license Localist
to our customers
• They know what events
to publish
• They don’t have the
resources to build a
calendar to manage
events as robustly as
they manage other
content

7. We realized Localist could be put to
amazing use by universities
We’re now helping over 700,000 students find
events on campus.
8. But we’ve always received interest from
smaller organizations
They needed a
simpler online
event
calendar, and we
had to turn them
away.
