OUR STORY

Parléview was founded in 2014 with a bold belief: that events could do more than bring people together — they could move industries forward.

What began as a shared vision between Laura Selman and Sarah Tammemagi quickly became a company built on purpose, precision, and possibility. From the start, Parléview set out to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary — redefining what was possible in design, logistics, and execution.

Today, Parléview is a women-owned and women-led organization employing hundreds of professionals. We are proud to have earned national and international awards, been recognized across global media, and trusted as a multi-year agency of record for leading corporate, government, and defence-sector clients. Our work spans continents — from high-profile galas and global tradeshows to secure, mission-critical gatherings for defence and government stakeholders. 

In an industry where leadership remains largely unchanged, Parléview stands as the only women-led agency breaking barriers in the defence sector at this scale, delivering highly complex, secure, and protocol-driven events with creativity, discretion, and operational excellence. We bring a perspective that challenges convention — and a standard of delivery that earns trust in the most demanding environments.
