About us
... Conventional isn’t our wave, cultural creativity is
Out Of Office (OOO) was born between hallway convos and group chats—created to build what didn’t exist: real community, real access, no gatekeeping.
event series became a full-service, culture-first agency. We lead with purpose, not playbooks—because being Out Of Office doesn’t mean we’re off. We’re building bigger.
