Michael Tardi is no stranger to the event management and hospitality industry. With over 25 years of experience producing private and corporate events, Michael Tardi has become a common name for party planners and corporations in the New York City area.

Michael first fell in love with the special events industry, with the best teacher he could possibly find - his father. Michael was introduced to the special event world through his father, James Tardi, owner and founder of AGV, the first mobile Video Production Company in New York. As a young boy, Michael would often tag along with his dad to high-end events taking place in some of Manhattan's most exclusive venues. When Michael turned 13, he established his own musical entertainment company that operated out of his bedroom in Floral Park (Long Island). With the rapid growth of his business, Michael was in need of more space. At the young age of 15, Michael moved his business into a local 600 square foot garage nearby.

Almost 26 years later, Michael still finds himself doing what he loves best, producing events. MMEink, a musical entertainment company in the early 90's, has grown into one of New York's most unique resources in the event management and hospitality industry. MMEink is complete with an event production team, fabrication shop, hospitality service team, as well as a digital team. MMEink has created a niche for itself within the special events industry. MMEink has their headquarters in Manhattan and Long island but also expands its expertise to South Florida with an office there as well. MMEink has the capacity to produce their events internally and has become a valuable creative partner to its clientele.

For the last decade, Michael has created a name for himself in the real estate and marketing industries. Michael has created a unique model for events. He transforms historical or commercial buildings into full turnkey event venue locations while supplying his clients with the one-of-a-kind experience that has gained him recognition in the industry. "It's about location, location, location."

Michael, also known as the "Man Behind the Brands" for the last 26 years, has created several brands like: Mikey Mike Entertainment, MMEInk, All That & More, Boozypops and Classic Carts, to name a few. Michael finds himself doing what he loves to do: Be the best creative mind behind brands from the ground up.
