TBA GLOBAL NOMINATED FOR 2008 ISES ESPRIT AWARD

New York Incentive Travel Program nominated as “Best Corporate Event” $75K-$200K

Los Angeles, CA (July 16, 2008) – Connective marketing, events and communications leader TBA Global today announced its nomination for a prestigious ISES (International Special Events Society) Esprit Award for its production of a Leadership Retreat for a leading financial services brand. The ISES Esprit Awards are the highest level of professional acknowledgement in the special events industry and are recognized globally. The Leadership Retreat was nominated for “Best Corporate Event” $75-$200K for the top incentive program.

“Our mission was to create an experience to help our client not only reward, but also engage, connect and inspire their top producers,” said Lee Rubenstein, President and COO of TBA Global. “We are thrilled with the event’s success and honored to have our work recognized by such an internationally acclaimed organization.”

TBA Global worked with its client to produce an unforgettable incentive trip in New York to reward their top 25 producers that would enthrall even a New York native, and surpass all previous incentive trips. The results were extraordinary. Highlights included a Manhattan sunset cruise, a special private performance by two principal cast members from Broadway’s Tony-Winning “Jersey Boys” prior to the show, and many private tours and seminars. The final evening culminated with an elegant, finely-appointed, five-course dinner with wine pairings at a famed venue with breathtaking views of Manhattan.
