Company History

Originally founded in 1979 as “Installation and Dismantle” or I&D, Nth Degree paved the way for independent I&D services in the tradeshow marketing industry. Led by founders Tony Amodeo, Jack McEntee and Pat Alacqua, Nth Degree was the first to offer exhibitors choices for their installation and dismantle labor. In time, as our customers’ needs for event marketing grew, so did Nth Degree. A number of event services and solutions were added, evolving Nth Degree into a global brand-to-face marketing company.

In 2001, Nth Degree came under the ownership of a group of private equity investors led by Chicago-based Frontenac Company. With this new source of committed equity, Nth Degree has expanded both in depth and breadth of our service offerings- strengthening our global delivery infrastructure and adding skills and services to support our clients’ strategic brand-to-face marketing agendas. In February 2009, Nth Degree celebrated 30 years as a leader in the event and tradeshow management industry.
