Imprint Events Group Becomes the Unified Mainland Brand for MC&A Operations 

Denver, CO | July 29, 2026 — Since MC&A’s acquisition of the company in March 2026, Imprint Events Group today announced the next milestone in its evolution as the unified operating company following the integration of MC&A’s mainland U.S. operations into the Imprint brand. 

The transition brings together two highly respected organizations under a single mainland identity while preserving the people, relationships, and service philosophy that have defined both companies for decades. MC&A Hawaii will continue operating independently under its established brand, while Imprint Events Group will serve as the flagship brand for all mainland business operations. 

The move represents the culmination of a thoughtful integration process centered on one goal: creating one of North America’s premier event strategy, production, and destination management companies. 

“Our vision has always been bigger than combining two companies,” said Eduardo Kina, CEO of Imprint Events Group and MC&A Hawaii. “This is about building an organization positioned for the future of our industry. By bringing together exceptional talent, complementary capabilities, and shared values under Imprint, we are creating greater opportunities for our clients, our employees, and our partners while reinforcing MC&A’s dedicated focus on Hawaii as one of our core markets.” 

The newly aligned leadership team brings together experienced leaders from both legacy organizations, combining deep industry expertise with a shared vision for the company’s future. The executive leadership is supported by a blended team of vice presidents, whose diverse backgrounds from both legacy organizations strengthen the unified company. Their combined experience, perspectives, and collaborative approach reinforce a leadership structure built for long-term success.  

“This isn’t about one organization becoming the other,” said Nicole Marsh, Chief Operating Officer. “It’s about taking the very best from each company and building something stronger together. Throughout this process, our focus has remained on preserving what clients value most… trusted relationships, exceptional people, and personalized service – while expanding the resources, creativity, and expertise available behind every experience we deliver.” 

Over the coming months, clients and partners will begin to see additional elements of the brand transition, including an updated website, digital platforms, and operational systems. Throughout the transition, existing client teams, project contacts, and service delivery will remain unchanged. 

“The name may be changing, but our commitment to excellence is not,” said Adriane Hodder, President. “Our clients can expect the same high-touch partnership they’ve always experienced, now backed by broader capabilities, expanded destination expertise, enhanced creative services, and a deeper bench of talent than ever before.” 

 Together, Imprint Events Group now offers clients: 

• Nationwide destination expertise across major mainland U.S. markets 

• Integrated event strategy, creative, production, and technical services 

• Expanded in-house media, content, and experiential capabilities 

• A scalable national organization built on a boutique, people-first approach 

• The global backing and resources of JTB Group while maintaining entrepreneurial agility and personalized service 

The company expects to complete the remaining phases of its brand and systems integration later this year, with no disruption to existing client programs or partnerships.
