About Us

Overview of GES

Our mission is to create the world’s most meaningful and memorable experiences for marketers, exhibition organizers and event attendees.

Everyone at GES works hard to ensure that everything we do revolves around our clients’ needs and goals.

We understand that clients need a marketing partner that is effective and efficient. In response, in early 2010 we brought seven of the best face-to-face marketing companies under the GES brand to create the largest one-stop provider of exhibition and event services. From marketing strategy to creative and logistics management, clients benefit from our comprehensive in-house solutions that engage attendees, save valuable time and drive superior results.

We are proud of our comprehensive offerings, and we are committed to providing service that is on time and right the first time.

With 61 offices worldwide, we are everywhere our clients need us to be. And while we are a global company, we act local. GES community involvement programs ensure we’re giving back and doing the right thing—for our clients and our communities.

Now more than ever, it’s important to work with a stable partner. GES is proud to be a division of Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI)—a financially secure, publicly traded company—which means we offer stability, transparency and the resources necessary to invest in new technologies and services to support our clients’ programs.

Fact is, we’ve structured our entire company around our clients’ needs, from what we do and where, to how we do it and why. Exhibits,  events, exhibitions, promotional tours, branded environments, holiday décor,  and retail solutions —we’ve been helping clients harness the power of live experiences for 70 years.

Backed by the financial stability of Viad and powered by the passion of 3,000 committed employees, we are focused on one thing: our clients’ success.
