The fiylo® Story
From a regional portal to a Germany-wide event platform
The internet was still in its infancy when Frank Lienert and his team started operating individual location portals for various German cities under this company name from Hanover in 2007.
Over the years, more and more requests for a Germany-wide search platform came in, and in 2016, it was finally time: under the name “fiylo – find your location”, the individual location portals were bundled into one online portal and also translated for English-speaking event planners.
Behind fiylo Deutschland GmbH is a strong, creative team alongside Frank Lienert. At the headquarters in Hanover, the Inside Sales Managers support our customers and, together with the Content Managers and Editors, ensure that venue providers and event service providers receive a high-quality online presentation. Meanwhile, fiylo field staff are traveling throughout Germany and Switzerland to personally visit the best providers. What unites our team is a passion for incomparable events, impressive venues, and professional services.
