GoPro Event Solutions

What GoPro Event Solutions does

GoPro Event Solutions is a privately held professional services firm headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama that delivers full-service event planning and management under the EverythingMatters™ brand. The company coordinates corporate events (meetings, conferences, product launches, team building), social events (weddings, garden parties, milestone celebrations), and non-profit events (galas, fundraisers, awareness campaigns), and additionally provides destination management and a portfolio of curated Birmingham-area tours such as the Historic Civil Rights Tour, Tasty Tour, and Vulcan Park Tour. Its service offering spans the full event lifecycle including venue research and booking, catering coordination, entertainment booking, decor and branding, light and sound design, security and valet booking, staffing, and on-site production management.

The business model is a consultation-based, quote-priced professional services engagement model. GoPro sells directly to clients through a five-person specialized team — Jennifer Gowers leads corporate, virtual and destination management; Nichole Stoffel leads event, decor and venue management; and Henry Reynolds, Bo Allen, and Emily Haslett lead venue and production management. The firm reports no proprietary software platform, no app, and no AI tooling, relying instead on operational expertise, established vendor relationships (seven preferred caterers plus core venue partners BridgeStreet Gallery & Loft and Sloss Furnaces), and industry memberships (MPI, PCMA, SITE, ALWEP, Cahaba) plus BBB accreditation as credibility assets. Marketing is driven by Instagram and Facebook organic social, a content-rich website gallery of past events, and the organization of community events such as Birmingham Taco Fest and Birmingham Restaurant Week Mix and Mingle.

Customer evidence indicates a diversified multi-vertical book spanning government (Welsh Government), healthcare (VA Medical Center, Encompass Health, SCA Health, HealthSouth), higher education (Duke University), technology (Google), automotive (Mercedes-Benz), and food and beverage (Birmingham Restaurant Week). Revenue is not disclosed, no institutional funding or M&A activity is on record, and the firm operates with 11–50 employees regionally focused on Birmingham and the broader Southeast USA market.
