15 Years and Counting
We’re honored to share that OBE has once again been named to Event Marketer’s It List, recognizing the Top 100 Event Agencies shaping the future of experiential marketing. This year marks our 15th consecutive appearance on the only editorially curated list of its kind—an achievement that reflects both our longevity and our relentless drive to evolve.
As Event Marketer notes, today’s top agencies are doing more than producing events—they’re scaling with clients, solving complex challenges, and delivering integrated, emotionally resonant work across every touchpoint. That’s the space where OBE thrives.
30 Years of Experience—Zero Signs of Slowing
This year also marks a milestone anniversary for OBE—three decades of building meaningful experiences with purpose, creativity, and heart. From our roots as a scrappy West Coast shop to a global presence across Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and London, we’ve stayed true to what makes us different: deep partnership, unwavering collaboration, and bold thinking.
At OBE, we don’t just deliver moments—we become an extension of our clients’ teams. We help brands show up with clarity and connection, and we bring our full creative, strategic, and production expertise to bear—because we’re in it together.
Proof in the Work
Our inclusion on this year’s It List isn’t just about recognition—it’s about results. We’ve partnered with some of the world’s most ambitious brands to solve real challenges through experiential solutions that move people and move the needle.
Here’s a glimpse into the kind of work that got us here:
Nike After Dark LA
From race prep and packet pick-up to a 13.1 mile journey to the finish line, OBE helped Nike LA deliver an energizing and unforgettable on-course experience to nearly 15,000 runners at Nike After Dark Los Angeles.
OpenAI Executive Summits
When OpenAI needed to host high-touch executive events in New York, San Francisco, and London—all in one week, we delivered a turnkey, scalable Executive Summit framework that ensured consistency, polish, and strategic alignment across all markets. Now we're helping them expand their program and launch in new global markets.
NFL Flag
We've partnered with the NFL, Chicago Bears, and the New York Jets to help grow the global footprint of Flag Football through immersive youth leagues and championship experiences. From 60,000+ young athletes in the UK to the first-ever Irish girls' league, we empowered new generations of players and helped clients expand into new global markets.
Converse at NBA All-Star Weekend
We helped Converse turn a product launch into a cultural moment—drawing 1,4000+ fans, a 13-ft headline-making sneaker, and millions of impressions.
J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge
As a long-standing global partner, we help bring the JPMCC Series to life across 16 cities and six continents each year—from a milestone 20th anniversary event in Singapore to vibrant races in San Francisco, Sydney, and beyond.
EEEEEATSCON by The Infatuation
We supported The Infatuation in scaling this beloved food-meets-culture EEEEEATSCON festival across Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York—delivering curated culinary moments and unforgettable vibes in every city.
