Convene is an award-winning, multi-device board portal solution designed and developed by Azeus Systems, a global IT provider certified at CMMI Level 5 and listed on the Singapore Exchange. Convene streamlines board meetings and governance for organizations ranging from Fortune 500 companies and FTSE 100 boards to governments and non-profits, serving thousands of clients in over 100 countries. The platform digitizes the end-to-end board experience—meeting preparation, agenda building, secure document sharing, real-time voting, e-signatures, and post-meeting minutes—while focusing on security, usability, and compliance.
Azeus Systems was founded by Lee Wan Lik in 1991. Convene itself was launched in 2010, initially as “Anywhere Pad,” before rebranding to Azeus Convene in 2015. The company has taken a global-first approach, rapidly expanding into new regions throughout the 2010s and 2020s, including a major push into Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. Key company offices are in Singapore, London, and Madrid, with sales presences in North America, Australia, and other global hotspots. The company’s experience in government and enterprise IT, and a focus on regulatory-sensitive sectors, underpins its robust feature and security suite.
Azeus Systems Holdings Ltd., the parent company, is a publicly traded company on the Singapore Exchange. Major funding comes from product licensing, large government contracts, and recurring SaaS revenue streams. Notably, in May 2022, Azeus secured its largest contract ever—worth approximately HK$1.02 billion (US$132 million)—for the Hong Kong SAR government to deploy a centralized records management system (Convene Records), with most contract value attributed to recurring license and maintenance fees. Azeus’s product segment has shown consistent double-digit annual growth, supported by the success of Convene and allied products
