Vendelux built a platform to answer one question at massive scale: across a quarter million B2B events, who from my target list is going to be in the room. Arcova asks a narrower version of the same question, scoped to the life science conference circuit, and answers it as part of the same fit and readiness score already running on the rest of your account list, not as a separate event-intelligence tool to check on its own.
What Vendelux actually does
Vendelux tracks more than 250,000 B2B events and offers tiered plans, a Starter tier with a capped number of full-insight events per month, a Plus tier with unlimited event insights and a set allotment of monthly lead credits for attendees and organizations, and a custom Enterprise tier, all sold as quote-only annual contracts. Reported buyer pricing on review sites ranges from the five figures into six figures annually depending on scale. Vendelux also offers AI-plus-human outreach to help book meetings with target attendees before an event.
That scale is built for teams running event programs across many industries and dozens or hundreds of shows a year. For a life science team, the events that matter tend to be a much smaller, industry-specific set, and generic event data does not carry the fit or readiness context that decides whether an attendee is worth a conversation in the first place.
What Arcova adds on top
Arcova does not try to cover every conference everywhere. It covers the conferences that actually come up in biotech and pharma GTM, see selling around life science conferences for how that circuit is used, and it does not treat conference attendance as a standalone list. Exhibiting or attending a relevant show becomes one input into the same fit and readiness score used across funding, hiring, and trial signals, so a conference appearance by a good-fit account moves it up the list, rather than producing a separate attendee export to cross-reference by hand.

When Vendelux is the better fit
If your team runs event marketing or field marketing programs that span many industries and many conferences a year, or you need a dedicated, white-glove meeting-booking service across a large event footprint, Vendelux's breadth and dedicated outreach support are built for exactly that scale in a way a life science-focused tool is not trying to match.
