Wildgoose open New York City Office
To support demand and plans for expansion globally, Wildgoose opened in summer 2016 its first overseas office in the Big Apple!
The New York City office has provided a permanent base for the award-winning events agency enabling them to more efficiently deliver events throughout North America, where they see a massive opportunity for growth.
Jonny Edser, Managing Director commented: “We continue to push the boundaries in gamified employee engagement events, and the US is a huge market for this. We have been working in US cities for years and our events have always proved to be a popular solution. The timing is perfect for Wildgoose to continue to build on the global success we have had to date with the opening of a New York City office. ”
With a growth of 340% over the past five years, Wildgoose have experienced a massive increase in demand for it’s team events in cities and venues across the globe.
Jonny added: “Around 80% of our events are UK based, however we are seeing a big shift with requests for events overseas becoming more and more frequent and the decision to open offices outside of the UK was a natural next step for us to accelerate this growth.”
Gemma Smith, who appeared on the 2016 C&IT A list heads up the sales side of the New York City office as VP Business Development alongside Lucinda Bianchi who is the General Manager, Operations. Both worked in the UK office for the past 2 ½ years, so have brought a huge amount of experience to the new operation.
