Welcome to Schron Associates!

Founded in 1982 and based in New York City, Schron Associates is a professional business services company specializing in meeting & event planning and group incentive travel. Globally, what we do is often called "MICE" (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions & Exhibitions) or "business tourism," which includes MICE as well as corporate educational travel, business study seminars, etc. We particularly specialize in management retreats, employee and client appreciation trips, business study tours and other such events of under 100 guests that require high quality venues and customized services as well as a high touch, personal approach.

As a family business with decades of experience, we do things the old fashioned way: with attention to detail and a personal touch. Unlike our big, brand-driven competitors that take on hundreds of clients at a time, we serve a smaller, more select client base. We accept only a limited number of assignments each year from clients who appreciate attention to detail, personal service and our no-nonsense, results-oriented attitude. We offer customized solutions based on unbiased advice and a focus on serving one client at a time.

Schron Associates is committed to putting together quality events at a reasonable cost that achieve your strategic objectives. Whether you're a small organization that lacks in-house resources or a large organization that needs some knowledgeable specialized assistance, we can be of service. We like to think that our background in marketing, finance, and public relations - not just sales or the travel and events business - helps us understand your goals and how business events can be used to achieve them.

We offer a comprehensive service for meetings, events and incentives, from designing incentive criteria and meeting agendas to negotiating prices and overseeing program execution and follow-up. Additionally, we have many years of experience in taking corporate and affinity groups on cruises, and have developed expertise in "business tourism," planning and escorting corporate group travel to explore new markets or to study factories or other facilities. We promise that, from start to finish, your program is handled personally by a member of our management team who is both accessible and accountable to you. We work with you to develop customized solutions that meet your need for results and return on investment.

We know we're good at what we do, but you don't have to take our word for it. As a small business, we have no big marketing budget and we rely on word of mouth, so check out our mailbag to see what clients and their guests have to say about us, from as near as the heartland of America and as far away as the South Pacific. Our services aren't for everyone, but if you appreciate integrity, unbiased advice, attention to detail, and responsive service, they might be for you.

Please contact us if you have any questions, or if you would like us to make a proposal for your next meeting, event or incentive trip.
