Q&A

What differentiates Ovation Global DMC from other Destination Management Companies?

 

What truly sets Ovation apart is our global reach combined with local expertise. We’re the only true Global Destination Management Company, with more than 60 wholly owned offices and over 60 key Strategic Partner destinations worldwide. Unlike franchise or affiliate models, our integrated global structure ensures consistent quality, accountability, and service excellence wherever you go. For over 30 years, we’ve been delivering seamless, creative, and high-impact event experiences across 100+ destinations, backed by dedicated local teams who understand every cultural nuance and logistical challenge. Simply put: we make it happen, anywhere in the world.

 

How is Ovation approaching sustainability and ESG in event planning?

 

Sustainability is embedded in everything we do. Ovation takes a holistic ESG approach—helping clients integrate sustainable practices throughout every stage of event planning. This includes choosing responsible destinations, reducing waste, partnering with local communities, and promoting inclusive, ethical experiences. Our teams actively work to minimize environmental impact while maximizing social value—ensuring that each event not only inspires participants but also leaves a positive legacy for the destination.

How does Ovation ensure consistency and quality across its global network?

 

Because Ovation operates as one unified global company rather than a collection of independent affiliates, our teams are fully aligned under the same standards of excellence. Every office shares the same service philosophy, operational protocols, and brand values, ensuring clients receive the same high level of professionalism and creativity, no matter the destination. Regular training, shared technology systems, and a culture of collaboration allow us to deliver flawless, on-brand experiences across continents.

 

What type of experiences can clients expect when partnering with Ovation?

 

Clients can expect immersive, one-of-a-kind experiences that celebrate each destination’s culture and character. From VIP executive services and personalized travel and concierge support to bespoke incentive itineraries, gala dinners, and special events, our programs are designed for maximum engagement and emotional connection. Whether it’s turning a historic castle into an unforgettable awards venue or transforming a city’s hidden gems into a storytelling journey, we create moments that inspire and motivate.

What kind of feedback do you receive from clients about working with Ovation?

 

The feedback we receive consistently highlights our dedication, professionalism, and can-do attitude. Clients praise our teams for their attention to detail, operational excellence, and warm hospitality. Many describe their events as the best they’ve ever attended, citing our ability to seamlessly handle complex logistics while delivering a personal touch.
