maiaa is a curated marketplace for design-led meeting and event spaces, helping companies and teams find venues with character for meaningful, in-person gatherings. We combine carefully selected spaces with a thoughtful booking flow to replace generic, transactional venue sourcing with a more human, design-driven experience.
The problem we’re solving:
Finding inspiring spaces for meetings and small events is still fragmented and inefficient.
Companies often rely on a mix of spreadsheets, emails, and generic listing platforms that prioritize volume over quality. The result is wasted time, inconsistent experiences, and venues that don’t reflect the purpose or culture of the gathering.
This affects:
• companies that value design, brand, and experience
• venue owners with distinctive spaces who lack the right distribution and tools
Despite a clear demand for better spaces, the market remains operationally outdated and aesthetically undifferentiated.
How we solve it:
maiaa brings structure, curation, and clarity to the process.
We:
• curate a limited selection of character-rich venues rather than listing everything
• focus on storytelling, aesthetics, and context — not just capacity and price
• provide a request-based booking flow that respects how venues actually operate
• integrate experiences and add-ons to make gatherings more intentional and complete
The platform is being built to balance design sensibility, operational realism, and scalable technology — with a strong focus on usability for both guests and hosts.
Why we started:
maiaa grew out of firsthand experience.
As a founder, operator, and boutique hospitality owner, I’ve spent years working with spaces, guests, and teams — and repeatedly experienced how broken and uninspiring venue sourcing can be, especially for gatherings that actually matter.
The motivation behind maiaa is simple:
to create a better alternative for people who care about where they meet, how they gather, and the experience they create together.
This is not about building another marketplace — it’s about raising the standard for how physical spaces are discovered and used.
