E-Events is a non-profit organisation founded in 2005 to provide a professional structure for a very motivated group of young people who are interested in new media and technology and would like to use it as much as possible in their events. Some of these events are organized by E-Events such as Frag-o-Matic, one of the biggest lanparties in Europe. But E-Events is also a partner in other events which are using our products and/or services.
A large part of our activities consist of video services: video projectors, video cables/splitters, large video screens, video-editing, big-screen computer-gaming, etc…
The idea of organizing lanparties started way back in the nineties when gaming on the internet boomed and these gamers wanted to meet each other in the week-end to socialize and do tournaments together. Events of this kind grew bigger quickly and in the year 2001 two of the biggest lanparties in Belgium: Landinges & Frag-o-Matic started working together to organize even bigger events. Since then, a non-profit organisation was founded to deal with administration and insurances. This organisation was followed up by E-Events in 2005 when new Belgian non-profit laws came into effect.
In 2006, the Belgian government started monitoring lanparties for copyright piracy and a lot of young people hesitated to come to lanparty events due to the music and video’s on their PC’s. E-Events decided to work together with the authorities to make sure that the lanparty network is primarily being used for gaming and not for copyright piracy. Thanks to this approach people start trusting lanparties again and as a result our events get bigger every new edition.
