The Way We Work
QZLX was founded with a philosophy of producing events that inspire audiences. We do this by applying design techniques from a variety of sources in the corporate and performing arts industries.
​
We know that the goal of your event isn't simply to have an event. We help companies engage their audiences with inspired design, thoughtful programming, and mindful planning.
​
From company gatherings, to product launches, to trivia tournaments, to fashion shows -- we understand the business of events. We've spent years honing our skills and building relationships with partners to deliver the best experience.
