Case Study: Gremlin strengthens team connection and makes offsite planning easier with BoomPop

How Gremlin planned their perfect Chicago offsite

Gremlin, a startup that builds reliability testing software, has a fully remote team with most employees hired during the pandemic, meaning they had rarely met in person. The company's VP of People faced the challenge of planning another engaging team offsite after a successful but very time-consuming 2022 event. With her expanded responsibilities in Finance and Legal, she needed a resource to handle the intensive planning, which led her to vendor BoomPop for their event planning services.

BoomPop worked closely with Gremlin to execute a detailed vision for a Chicago offsite, which included a thorough site walkthrough and organizing activities like a river cruise and a Cubs game. The solution delivered an event that exceeded expectations, with 93% of attendees giving it a five-star rating in a post-event survey. The partnership with BoomPop saved the VP of People significant planning time, allowing her to focus on her core job, and has given the company confidence to plan more frequent offsites in new cities.
