Unique and Affordable Value
In addition to IMG Associations’ extensive menu of services and flexible staffing model, we can provide affordable access to unique, extended resources and leverage relationships that no other management partner can.
IMG Associations was founded in 1974 as Host Communications. In 2007, our company was acquired by IMG, a global company known for excellence in management, events, sports, entertainment and media. The acquisition didn’t change our commitment to excellence in personal service or our status as a mid-size, boutique association management firm, but it does allow our clients the option to leverage IMG relationships and resources all over the world.
IMG (www.imgworld.com) is the world's premier and most diversified sports, entertainment and media company, offering expertise across a wide range, including event management and global services (such as association management). From emerging leadership in areas like digital media, licensing and entertainment programming, to a long-standing strength in sports, fashion and traditional media, IMG is committed to providing business-building solutions. Founded in 1960, IMG is the global leader in event management and talent representation across golf, tennis and fashion and has a significant presence in many other business, sports, cultural and lifestyle categories.
