Our Story

Our Story

Annaina was co-founded by Maya Jain and Florian Forster, two visionaries united by a shared mission: to simplify and elevate the way the industry works together.

With decades of combined experience across event strategy, business innovation, and digital technology, Maya and Florian saw a gap in the destination event space — and a chance to build something truly transformative.


They created Annaina: a purpose-built platform that bridges the gap between planners and trusted service providers. Their goal? To make connections effortless, efficient, and impactful — so professionals can focus on what they do best: creating extraordinary experiences.
