Graphic Designer

pc/nametag

For over 30 years, we’ve been helping planners create extraordinary events, everything from week-long conferences and corporate board meetings to three-day music festivals and community fundraisers. Our customized products not only connect attendees to one another, but also to the sensorial experience surrounding them.

Our founder started pc/nametag in 1985, and he understood how a simple name tag sparked conversations. But as a certified meeting planner, he also dealt with endless tasks before the event that left no time to create name tags. Driven to find an easier and faster way to produce them, he partnered with a programmer to develop name badge software for one of the first personal computers, allowing planners to print their own badges.

That development paved the way for innovative on-site registration and exclusive event supplies, as well as a concierge service — possibly our most well-known product — all which have helped thousands of planners execute their events as seamlessly as possible.

While other companies in the industry focus on how quickly they get your order out, we take a more thoughtful approach. At pc/nametag, we believe that staying connected means building lasting relationships, not just single transactions. And, just like the event planner, we’re in the business of bringing people together, one meaningful connection at a time.
