About Epistemix

Epistemix has worked with city and state leaders in public health and the Exhibition & Conference Alliance to develop a decision support solution that meets the needs for organizers and public health officials. Our work incorporates the latest science on COVID-19, including vaccination booster shots and the Omicron variant.

Since the Event Planning product was introduced in August 2021 to address the needs of the exhibition, conference, and sports industries, Epistemix has forecast the spread of COVID-19 in 22 different cities across 13 states, including New York City, Orlando, Dallas, Chicago, Los Vegas, and San Francisco.  We have simulated events with as few as 150 attendees and up to 70,000. Across all customers we’ve simulated an average of just over 11,000 attendees per event.

Our exclusive results help event organizers plan for and communicate with attendees and exhibitors for their upcoming event. Epistemix is an independent company, and data collected is for simulation purposes only. Data is not shared for any other purpose or with any other company.
