History

SDE was founded and incorporated in April, 1992, in Troy, Michigan by two women who had a passion for both event management and client service. Their professional experience in both the agency and corporate worlds propelled their business into immediate, steady growth. In 2003, the expanding company moved to larger quarters in Royal Oak, Michigan. In January 2011, after further growth, the company moved to its current location at 1229 South Washington Avenue in Royal Oak. But we doubt that this will be our last stop.
