Ivan Rodriguez Consulting

What Ivan Rodriguez Consulting does

Ivan Rodriguez Consulting is a privately held, founder-owned audio-visual and event-production firm incorporated in Florida and operating from a single headquarters at 4214 Polk Street, Hollywood, Florida. The company delivers premium event production for corporate and social occasions, combining sound, lighting, video, staging, cooling, SFX, and live entertainment (DJs, musicians, MCs, dancers, specialty acts) under a single integrated provider. Its named enterprise clients include Nova Southeastern University (2022 Hall of Fame), Addison Reserve (Mid-Season Soiree lighting design), and Art Basel Miami (2019 Art Plug Powerhouse).

Beyond event production, the firm sells commercial and residential System Design services covering sound, lighting, LED video walls, media and entertainment systems, and smart-home/office/venue technology installations. Service delivery is by appointment, quote-based, and regional to Southeast Florida; marketing relies on a professional website (makemrave.com), a YouTube channel, and an email newsletter signup. The only external capital recorded is a $10,000 Comcast RISE grant received in November 2021; no institutional investment, parent company, or additional funding rounds are documented. Revenue, headcount, and ownership beyond sole-founder Ivan Rodriguez are not disclosed.

The business model is professional-services, project-based revenue with pay-as-you-go billing and custom quotes per event or system-install scope. The founder's 30 years of event-industry experience and combined technology/design expertise are the principal differentiating assets. No patents, trademarks, formal awards, regulatory actions, partnerships, acquisitions, or M&A activity are recorded, and the company has no disclosed subsidiaries, app, or API surface.
