Juan L. Rivera, Founder at Nexivent, Inc., has been recognized by Marquis Who’s Who Top Executives for dedication, achievements and leadership in Event Technology.

Mr. Rivera has established himself as a leading expert in event technology, demonstrating a career marked by innovation and a commitment to improving industry standards. In 2024, he founded Nexivent, Inc., as the company’s founder. In this capacity, Mr. Rivera has focused on developing management software tailored for event managers and organizers, providing specialized technology that eliminates the need for general service contractors. His platform is designed as a deployable solution that requires no on-site servers, enabling users to log in to profiles, assign rooms and manage operations efficiently. The application’s advanced security features are particularly notable for supporting U.S. Department of Defense clients, allowing seamless cross-tenant access for attendees across multiple events while maintaining robust protection.

Leveraging his extensive experience across multiple areas of the industry, including registration, presentation management, digital signage, and work with major service contractors, Mr. Rivera has collaborated with top professionals worldwide. Distinguished by his ability to identify problems and design solutions, especially as they relate to labor quality, training and access to technology, his company addresses outdated systems, high infrastructure requirements and expenses that often exclude clients by integrating key technologies into a single platform. Unlike his competitors, who rely on internet-based products with limited redundancy, Mr. Rivera successfully developed an application-based system with a P2P mesh network backend that decentralizes server load, enhances security and achieves data compression rates up to 90%, enabling the efficient transfer of shows using kilobytes instead of gigabytes.

Throughout his professional journey, spanning more than a decade, Mr. Rivera has been recognized for his meticulous approach to identifying and resolving industry challenges that impact clients, technicians and stakeholders. Early in his career, he gained hands-on experience in various roles within the field, working alongside skilled technicians who often lacked strong customer service abilities. Recognizing the importance of communication and composure under pressure, Mr. Rivera developed methods to bridge these gaps, authoring white papers to replicate his solutions and streamline technology implementation. He believes that while technical skills can be taught, innate qualities, such as effective communication, are essential for success in the industry.

Mr. Rivera’s educational background included earning a high school diploma. He attributes his achievements to an unwavering vision and steadfast commitment to his goals. Guided by advice to focus on core strengths rather than attempting to address every challenge simultaneously, Mr. Rivera remains dedicated to realizing the full potential of his ideas. This vision-driven approach has been instrumental in shaping his career and the innovative solutions he brings to the event technology sector.

In addition to his professional accomplishments, Mr. Rivera is civically engaged as a donor to Doctors Without Borders, reflecting his commitment to supporting humanitarian efforts beyond his industry contributions.

Looking ahead, Mr. Rivera aims to continue expanding and enhancing the event technology industry through continued development of his product and strategic collaborations with organizations such as the American Heart Association and the Society of Petroleum Engineers. His ongoing focus is on creating unified platforms that reduce costs and improve functionality for all participants in the event ecosystem, ensuring secure, efficient connections among attendees, exhibitors and speakers across diverse events.
