Outpost Event Co.
exists for teams who refuse to run forgettable events.

We operate just outside the lines — challenging tired formats, unnecessary spend, and “this is how it’s always been done.”

Every event is designed with intention, executed with precision, and built to deliver real impact.

We don’t do events for the sake of events.
We build experiences that leave a mark — and prove their value.

Why Outpost Event Co.

We’re the outliers.

The ones who don’t believe the best events come from checklists and templates.

Outpost Event Co. was built for teams willing to push past safe, predictable formats in favor of experiences that actually matter. We challenge assumptions, question excess, and focus relentlessly on execution.

Because memorable events don’t happen inside the lines — they happen when strategy, creativity, and discipline collide.

We don’t chase trends.
We don’t do fluff.
We build events worth remembering — and worth the investment."


About our Founder
Katie Ray

I’m an experienced event contractor who helps teams design and execute high-impact in-person and virtual events with precision. Over the past 5 years, I’ve supported conferences, executive experiences, tradeshows, and private events — acting as a trusted extension of internal teams.

I help teams deliver polished, memorable events without the cost or complexity of building a full internal events function.

Events aren’t “set it and forget it.” They require thoughtful planning, real-time problem solving, and disciplined execution.

I bring structure, clarity, and reliability to every engagement, allowing teams to stay focused on their goals while delivering exceptional guest experiences.

  • Katie Ray is my go-to for all things events. She takes my basic, half-baked ideas and turns them into magical experiences- and does it with more enthusiasm than anyone I know. She can do literally anything. The only thing you will ever regret is not hiring Katie to work on your events.
