RTG | Strategic Meetings & Experiences
Executive Execution. Agency Results. Fractional Cost.
High-stakes events require more than a template; they require the seasoned intuition of a leader who has spent 25 years in the field. While anyone can build an agenda, RTG architects experiences that protect your capital, mitigate your risk, and drive your bottom line.
The RTG Advantage:
The Ultimate Way to Scale: Large agencies charge for massive overhead and often hand your project to junior staff. RTG provides the same senior-level negotiation and global leverage of a top-tier firm, but with the agility and cost-efficiency of an independent Project Principal.
Commercial Foundation & Risk Protection: RTG doesn’t just book rooms; we secure your investment. We prioritize institutional grade contract negotiation, securing aggressive rates and concessions while shielding you from attrition and cancellation liabilities.
Operational Continuity: We eliminate the cost of vacancy. Whether you are facing a team leave or a sudden transition, we step in with zero onboarding friction to ensure your mission-critical projects stay on track.
Global Shorthand & Corporate Rigor: Having executed across multiple continents and for global tech leaders like Red Hat and IBM, RTG brings the operational discipline of a Fortune 500 firm to a personalized, boutique model. We anticipate international complexities before they impact your budget or your brand.

Meet the Founder
Lisa Brugh | Experience Architect
For over 25 years, my career has been defined by the execution of high stakes corporate strategy. I founded RTG Meetings to solve a critical resource gap: the need for senior-level strategic oversight without the overhead of a large agency.
I serve as a project principal for organizations that require a plug-and-play leader. My focus is two-fold: architecting the commercial foundation of your events through aggressive venue procurement and contract negotiation, and providing operational continuity when your internal team is in transition or over capacity.
I provide the field-tested intuition required to hit the ground running, ensuring your mission critical investments are protected and delivered flawlessly, with zero onboarding friction and zero margin for error.

High-Value Sourcing. Zero Net Cost.
We don’t just book rooms, we architect the commercial foundation of your event. RTG Meetings identifies properties that meet executive standards and leverages 25+ years of industry relationships to secure aggressive room rates, premium concessions, and protective contract terms.
The Engagement Retainer: We initiate sourcing projects with a $1,000 engagement fee. This secures a dedicated research phase, comprehensive market availability analysis, and a custom venue blueprint.
The Result: When your program is contracted through our partnership network, 100% of the retainer is credited back to you. Our expert negotiation and procurement services essentially become a complimentary, high-ROI asset to your organization.
The Value: We provide institutional-grade protection. Beyond the rates, we focus on the fine print, negotiating attrition protection and cancellation clauses to shield your capital from market variables. If your plans shift, you retain the full market research and vetted options for a flat fee.
Expert Oversight. Plug-and-Play Integration. Agency Results.
Whether you require an Experience Architect to design a flagship program from scratch or a project principal to lead a team through a sudden transition, we provide senior-level continuity without the friction of traditional hiring. We offer the deep expertise of a global agency at the fractional cost of an independent partner.
Operational Continuity (Gap Support): We eliminate the cost of vacancy. We provide immediate, high-level coverage for staff on leave or sudden vacancies, keeping your mission-critical projects on track without the need for a slow onboarding ramp.
Full Program Architecture: We handle the end-to-end —from initial strategy and vendor procurement to on-site delivery and post-event analysis. You get senior oversight on every detail, with no junior hand-offs.
The Independent Partner Advantage: By removing the markups, management fees, and overhead of large firms, we deliver institutional grade results in a leaner, more cost-efficient model that prioritizes your budget’s ROI.
On-Site Principal Leadership: Professional ground control for your most critical meetings. We manage complex logistics, high-stakes vendor relations, and executive requirements, ensuring a flawless experience for your stakeholders.
