Easing people out of their comfort zones
influence group produces invite-only leadership retreats, virtual roundtables and custom content for business leaders in a variety of industries. Our unique event formats are designed to ease people out of their comfort zones to encourage open and candid dialogues around issues that are critical to business success. The opposite of a trade show, influence events are intimate, personable and centered around building meaningful relationships.
Carefully curated audiences
We are passionate about communities and the magic that happens when the right mix of like-minded people are brought together. This is why we curate our audiences just as carefully as we curate the content and speakers. Unlike most events that take place at large convention hotels, influence group retreats are hosted at intimate resorts to ensure a relaxed and productive environment.
sift through the noise
In an era of information abundance, influence group provides a platform to sift through the noise and connect with industry peers to solve problems and build relationships. Because of the focused nature of our communities, members have a better ROI on their time.
Who we are
Founded in October 2013 by Michael P. Owens and Michael McCarthy, influence group set out to transform the world of B2B events and custom content.
Recognizing the diminishing impact of traditional conferences and trade shows, they envisioned a new model—events that business leaders would actually want to attend and where sponsors would see meaningful returns.
Over the past decade, influence group has grown from a duo to an international team of diverse and dedicated professionals.
Headquartered in NYC, influence group has consistently delivered invigorating events, content, and communities that stand out from traditional conferences and trade shows.
Our passion lies in connecting people to ignite innovation and drive meaningful progress.
“Unbelievable job of bringing together high quality vendors and owners who are interested and hungry to get the latest insights from the industry. It’s been a great relationship builder for us.”
