Building Team Relationships
Venture Up began in 1983 as the first company devoted to building team relationships. We pioneered the team-building industry and continue to help organizations create happy, productive workplaces.
Engagement That Builds Culture
Employee engagement is a priority for successful companies. Our inclusive events connect teams, build trust, and strengthen internal brand loyalty. The thread linking company, employee, and community is a commitment to social responsibility. Whether you are training staff or energizing a meeting, we partner with you to honor your people and enrich your culture. Learn more about employee engagement.
