Live regional example
Hamilton shows the model in action.
HamiltonEvents.ca is the first live example of Supercompressor in a region. It shows how one trusted local guide can help residents discover more, organisers reach active audiences and municipal teams gain a clearer picture of what is happening.
Early results
Existing demand found a dependable destination.
Resident research conducted through MaRS found that 73% of respondents saw distributed listings as their biggest challenge when looking for events. HamiltonEvents.ca tested that problem in the real world: within three months, more than 7,500 people used the platform and the equivalent of more than 1% of Hamilton residents were reached, all without promotion, marketing or paid acquisition.
