Looking Back at 25 Years
It’s hard to believe, but MC² hit the big 2-5 this year! From our humble beginnings in 1999 to becoming a global powerhouse in brand experience, it’s been one incredible journey—and we’re just getting started.
OUR ORIGINS
Flashback to 1999: the year when Cher’s “Believe” topped the charts, and the world saw the dawn of a new millennium. But for us, it marked something even more monumental—the creation of MC². Born from the merger of five leading exhibit, event, and creative services companies, MC² was built on a foundation of 50+ years in collective expertise. We weren’t just merging companies; we were combining legacies, talents, and visions to create something extraordinary.
SETTING THE STAGE FOR SUCCESS
When we opened our doors, we started with 10 locations, each one contributing to our nationwide service capabilities. From New York City to Las Vegas, we were ready to take on the trade show world with the feats of our early clients. Our early years were marked by some of the industry’s most iconic projects—each one pushing the boundaries of what was possible in experiential marketing.
As the years went by, we expanded, innovated, and adapted. We opened new locations, like our Kingman production facility in 2007, and made strategic acquisitions, like Brand Promotions in 2016, which became our Consumer Events division. Each step forward was driven by our commitment to providing premier turnkey services that go beyond expectations. In 2017, MC²’s global reach solidified itself after MCH Group’s purchase of our company setting the tone for the next few years in global marketing.
Through it all, one thing has remained constant—our people. The talent, creativity, and dedication of our team have been the driving force behind every success. And we can’t forget our clients, some of whom have been with us since day one. They’ve trusted us to bring their visions to life, and together, we’ve created experiences that have left lasting impressions on audiences around the world.
As we celebrate this milestone, we’re not just looking back—we’re also looking forward. The next 25 years will be about pushing the envelope even further, continuing to innovate, and, most importantly, creating unforgettable experiences that resonate with audiences and stand the test of time.
