“Elevate transformed our event into our most dynamic event yet. From the precision of stage management to the immersive production design, the experience perfectly captured the energy of the PEMF community.”

Project Overview

Hosted in Louisville, KY, this event featured three days of keynote sessions, educational workshops, product showcases, and an evening outing at Churchill Downs.

The event balanced live certification courses, dynamic keynotes, and networking activations—culminating in a high-energy experience that celebrated learning, community, and the evolving field of PEMF therapy.
