Ever since Della van Heyst founded VHG in 1995, we’ve been creating conferences and events geared toward solving problems, transforming companies, and influencing entire industries. We combine the tenacity of an investigative reporter, the insights of a business consultant, and the programming flair of a concert promoter. We dig into a topic, plot out a narrative that explains where it’s headed (or where it should be headed), then assemble the experts and interactive program elements that can bring that narrative to life in ways no other conference company can.

Founded in Silicon Valley in 1995, the Van Heyst Group is now based in the heart of Boulder, Colorado, which a 2012 Kauffman Foundation report ranked as the number one city in the U.S. in terms of tech-startup density. In addition to the executive team, the VHG ecosystem includes a deep roster of veteran event strategists, producers, designers, marketers, consultants, A/V technicians, and programmers.
