Who We AreWelcome to
Welcome to
Universal Events
Universal Events Inc. is a B2B consulting and supply firm based in San Ramon, California. We provide professional business frameworks, product supply, and high-level consulting to 20+ independently owned and operated offices across the United States.
Each office in our network is independently owned and operated — they hire their own staff, manage their own day-to-day operations, and hold their own contracts with nonprofit partners. We supply the framework; they run the field.

What We Provide
Six pillars of infrastructure support
We handle the back-office so our clients can focus entirely on what they do best.
Recruiting
We identify, attract, and place the people your organization needs. From outreach coordinators to team leads, we build your workforce so you can focus on execution.
Compliance
Regulatory requirements, state permits, licensing, and industry standards — we ensure every organization we support operates fully within legal and ethical boundaries.
Operations
Day-to-day operational support across every function. We run the backend so our clients can run their business without the overhead of building it themselves.
Legal
We provide legal guidance and structural support to help organizations navigate contracts, entity formation, partnership agreements, and ongoing regulatory obligations.
Finance & Accounts
Payroll, billing, budgeting, and financial reporting — handled with precision. We give organizations the financial infrastructure to stay lean and grow with confidence.
Logistics
Supply chain, materials, equipment, and field coordination. We make sure everything is in the right place at the right time — across all markets, every time.
