A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.
The mid-1990s, a core group of creatives working at Industrial Light + Magic (ILM) began producing ILM’s events, including wrap parties and tradeshows. Realizing the ILM blueprint of merging technology, craft and entertainment could be leveraged to transform brands into awe-inspiring live events, this group of creatives seized an extraordinary opportunity to leave their own mark in the event space. This was the beginning of Trademark Event Productions right here in our own galaxy in 1997. Today, Trademark retains that experiential DNA in everything we do—it serves as the magic behind launching the live event experience into exciting, uncharted territories.

People, passion and the power of YES.
Creativity is essential for what we do. It needs an environment where imagination can run free, curiosity is king and “norm” is a four-letter word. Where laser-focused attention to detail is just as celebrated as punk-rock energy.
And the unknown is embraced (like Chewbacca hugging Han) with wide open arms. By creating a culture that our team and our clients can thrive in, it makes it easy to love what we do, love who we do it with and say yes to any challenge.
