CLEVELAND - May 14, 2021 - The Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland, managed by ASM Global, has announced the selection of Mills James as their new audiovisual production partner for the facility.
"As one of the country's largest production companies, Mills James has built a reputation for high-impact events and outstanding customer service, two critical strengths for the convention center going forward," said Assistant General Manager Mike Campo. "We're back in growth mode — HCCC and Cleveland in general — and we're excited to partner with Mills James to take client events to the next level."
Mills James will become Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland's preferred provider of production services and its exclusive provider of rigging services. Founded in Columbus in 1984 by Ken Mills and Cameron James, the employee-owned company produces live and virtual events, commercials, broadcast programs, and visual communication in all its emerging formats.
"Our mission is to redefine convention center audiovisual services," said Mike Tyson, Director of Convention Center Sales for Mills James and primary contact for the HCCC account. "The Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland is committed to raising the game nationally, and we're honored to be part of it."
"We're able to offer production value that rivals anything you'd see in New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago, but at client-friendly price points," added Mike Yearling, one of Mills James' managing partners. "And with greater speed and agility, which is so important these days. The fact that every Mills James associate is an owner in the company is a huge differentiator for us."
