Corporate events can feel like a necessary evil, marked by exhaustion & waste. But they don’t have to be. Which is why we do what we do.
We’re not trying to impress anyone— we just strive to be good people who create great events.
These folks have seen it all, working for the top dogs in the industry for years. Over drinks, they start chatting about the wild world of events.
Picture this: It's 2019, and a group of event pros are swapping stories at a big conference.
These event wizards knew the headaches clients face inside and out. They dreamed up an agency that could take all that stress away, handling every detail so clients could actually enjoy the process. They wanted to create a one-stop-shop where overworked executives and marketing teams could breathe easy, knowing their events were in expert hands.
They imagined an agency that would do more than just execute - it would innovate. Using cutting-edge tech and years of know-how, they could streamline everything from venue selection to attendee communication. No more juggling a dozen vendors or worrying about dropped balls.
They wanted to be the agency that clients could trust completely, knowing that every detail would be perfect. No more sleepless nights, no more stress-eating, just confidence that their event would exceed expectations.
As ideas bounced around, you could feel the excitement building. Right then and there, Huddle was born.
As the night goes on, they realize they're all thinking the same thing: "There's got to be an easier way to do this!" They'd seen countless clients stressed to the max, juggling a million details and losing sleep over their events. That's when the lightbulb moment hit.
The mission? Simple. Take the headache out of event planning. Period. Whether it's a small team meeting or a massive conference, Huddle would handle it all, letting clients focus on what they do best.
And just like that, a chance meeting turned into a revolution in event management. Huddle: where event planning nightmares become event planning dreams.
Susan Fitzgerald
Susan is a proven corporate events leader with a vision to revolutionize the impact of events on corporations, individual employees, and the environment.
While serving as president of a multi-national travel agency, Susan could manage complex travel logistics in her sleep. But she also saw the consequences of poorly planned gatherings—and realized that most companies don’t have the time, resources, or know-how to use technology to make events easier on their employees & the environment. Huddle Agency fills that gap by adding consulting, training, data collection, and automated workflows to the typical full-service event planning package.
When Susan’s not planning her next sustainable travel experience (ask her about that!), she’s hanging out with her husband and two kids in their New York City neighborhood.
