Leaders Within the Travel, Corporate Meetings & Live Events Industry.
Managing Partners - Michael Friedman, and Javier Valdez - are seasoned travel, corporate meetings and live events professionals. They co-founded Meet Virtually with a vision of connecting people from around the world - opening eyes and hearts to new cultures and experiences. Creating positive change within the virtual travel, meetings and events space remains their focus as the way people connect and meet continue to evolve.
MICHAEL FRIEDMAN
Michael is fully invested in the Events Industry. That’s what brought him to New York City from his home in Boston 6 years ago. He spent the first part of his career in New York working for one of the country’s top event designers as Business Development Manager. He transitioned to the Wildlife Conservation Society where he led a team hosting corporate events at the Central Park Zoo. Today, Michael finds himself back in the design world with ZAK Events as their Manager of Business Development.
Michael has been involved with the International Live Events Association, ILEA NY-Metro Chapter for 5 years now and has been serving on the board as an officer on the Communications Committee. In June, he will be promoted to serve as Vice President of Communications.
In 2020 during the Coronavirus pandemic, Michael saw an influx of online live virtual events for the Live Events Industry and an associated need. As a result, he co-founded CueScape, an online directory of live virtual events for the events community. His mission is to cultivate the best virtual experiences through this partnership for Meet Virtually’s customers.
JAVIER VALDEZ
