Meet the Spektrix Team

Spektrix was conceived in 2007 by two software developers with a shared passion for theater. They’d experienced first-hand the limitations of ticketing software in the internet age - and they set out to build a better solution for theaters and arts organizations, and a creative, dedicated team to deliver it.
