ELIZABETH BENNETT EVENT PORTFOLIO
EXECUTIVE SUMMITS
Blending strategic vision with meticulous attention to detail, I’ve designed and produced executive gatherings that bring industry leaders, decision-makers, and stakeholders together for meaningful conversations, high-value networking, and game-changing
collaborations around the globe.
No two executives—or their expectations—are the same, which is why I take a bespoke approach to every summit, ensuring each experience is tailored, seamless, and unforgettable. Whether it’s a private leadership retreat, an investor roundtable, or a thought-leadership forum, I specialize in creating intimate, high-touch experiences that go beyond the typical conference. Every detail is curated to foster connection, spark innovation, and strengthen business relationships—while making every attendee feel like a VIP.
A Unique Approach to
Executive Engagement in Deer Valley, UT
Bringing together top financial industry leaders for a high-level executive summit requires more than just an agenda—it demands an environment that fosters meaningful connections, strategic conversations, and a setting that breaks away from the traditional corporate mold. As the lead event producer on an innovative executive partner summit event in Deer Vally, Utah for a leading financial firm, I was responsible for every detail of this exclusive summit, from concept development to execution, ensuring a seamless and impactful experience that would resonate with attendees long after the event ended.

Rather than hosting another standard partner summit in a boardroom, we took a bold approach—Deer Valley, Utah. The client wanted an event that encouraged relationship-building in an organic, engaging way, without the forced nature of traditional team-building activities. We designed the experience to give attendees time to connect on the slopes, allowing them to naturally build relationships before diving into key discussions over the following days.
​​
With just 30 executive level attendees, every detail had to be flawless. I led the planning and oversaw the execution of all logistics, including securing premium accommodations, managing executive travel, curating high-end dining and activity experiences, and coordinating AV production for the summit’s key discussions. The highlight of the event was a custom-built hospitality suite—an elevated, lodge-style space with clear sides, offering panoramic mountain views where guests were encouraged to meet, instead of in tradtional board room spaces. This immersive setting set the tone for high-level conversations, fostering both productivity and engagement, and was fully equipped with meeting areas and A/V.
​
The partner summit was met with overwhelming success, boasting an almost 100% acceptance rate from top-tier partners in the following years. Attendees valued the balance of structured meetings with opportunities for informal, high-value networking, leading to strengthened relationships and valuable strategic discussions. What started as a one-time event has since become an annual tradition, running successfully six times, and solidifying itself as a must-attend experience for the client’s most important partners.
