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

influence group was founded in October of 2013 by Michael P. Owens and Michael McCarthy, who collectively have more than thirty years experience producing B2B events and custom content.

Aware that the effectiveness of most conferences and trade shows was dwindling, they recognized the need for a revitalized model… events that business leaders would actually want to attend and where sponsors would see a meaningful return on investment.

In 10 years, influence has grown from two founders to an international team of diverse and dedicated people.

Headquartered in NYC (FiDi), the company has proven its events, content, and communities offer an invigorating alternative to traditional outlets.

The influence group has a passion for bringing people together to explore innovation and progress…and we look forward to working with you!
