What we do

## Four disciplines, one team.

01

### Event & Experience Production

Event production, location scouting, and contract negotiation — turning an idea into a flawlessly run day.

02

### Branding & Partnerships

Branding, strategic partnerships, and celebrity appearances that give a program a face people remember.

03

### Web & Technology

Web design, technology development, and crowdsourcing tools built to support an experience, not just promote it.

04

### Sponsorship & Hospitality

Sponsor management, product placement, and hospitality that make a partnership worth renewing.

Selected work

## Proof, not promises.

Fundraising & Sponsorship Management

### Rory Foundation

Across 2015 and 2016, Trine partnered with the European Tour and the Irish Open to run large-scale fundraising events for Rory McIlroy's foundation — helping raise more than $2 million while managing presenting sponsorships and sports hospitality.

World Cup Hospitality · Brazil

### Beck & Score

Trine spent months on the ground in Brazil building and running Beck & Score's hospitality program at the 2014 World Cup, including custom technology built to keep clients and staff connected throughout the tournament.

Sponsorship Activation

### Kentucky Derby

Trine built a brand activation reaching more than 200,000 guests at Churchill Downs — a custom hat and bow-tie experience with designers Gigi Burris and Timo Weiland, plus hospitality in Millionaire's Row.

Ongoing Event Management

### Thuzio Executive Club

Trine managed the monthly execution of more than 30 events for Thuzio's executive membership club, each tailored for sponsor engagement and flawless talent management.

Registration, Marketing & On-Site Logistics

### Herbalife24 Triathlon Los Angeles

Trine produced the Herbalife24 Triathlon Los Angeles — the USAT-sanctioned race that brought triathlon back to L.A. with an urban, point-to-point course from a Venice Beach ocean swim to a finish line at L.A. Live. Trine ran registration, marketing, and on-site logistics for an event drawing more than 2,000 athletes each year.

Also: Sundance Film Festival sponsorship · Steve Nash Foundation influencer campaign, Rio de Janeiro.

How we work

## Create. Execute. Measure.

01 — Create

Every interactive engagement, physical or digital, is built around one goal: an unforgettable experience that ties straight back to the brand that created it.

02 — Execute

We deliver on that idea with flawless execution and unparalleled attention to detail, because that's what clients — and their guests — remember.

03 — Measure

We analyze the operational, social, and marketing impact of every program, and work together with clients to build the next one.

Who we are

## A small team with a decade-long track record.
