Ticketmaster's TicketWeb Buys Strobe Labs

Los Angeles-based TicketWeb, the self service ticketing arm of Ticketmaster, announced this morning that it has acquired event marketing software developer Strobe Labs. Financial details of the acquisition were not announced. Strobe Labs developed software which helped entertainment venues search and view customer profiles, build and deploy fan lists for direct marketing and email campaigns, and run social campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and Spotify. Strobe Labs was part of Techstars Boston, and was founded by two students at Brown University, Alex Oberg and Evan Altman, along with JP Eberenz Rosero.
