Looking Back at Gifting with Cultivate in 2024
Whether you appreciated people on-site or online, met our team at a GPS Destinations PlannerConnect event, stopped by our booth at Cvent Connect, Total Rewards, Disrupt HR, Pharma Forum, or BizBash Connect Marketplaces, or received a premium gift from one of our clients, 2024 was a year filled with memorable corporate gifting experiences!
Not only did we travel to meet you at amazing destinations around the world for gift programs, trade shows, and marketing events, but we also made strides in our services and introduced new gifts to expand all the ways you can gift Cultivate, like:
🌟 Refreshed our core collections with long-standing brand partners like OluKai, Raen, Ray-Ban, Patagonia, and many more to offer the latest styles.
🌟 We have added hundreds of trendy 🎁 options, including new branded and thematic pre-event, room drop, and bulk gifts!
