Indigenous events, imagined differently.
Purposefully created to build connection, inspire action and create lasting impact.
SQRL2 creates creates environments where people connect, conversations move forward, and ideas have somewhere to go. Our strategic corporate events are designed to bring the right people into the room, shape meaningful conversations, and move ideas into action. From early concept and event strategy through production, logistics, and onsite delivery, we manage the details so every experience feels intentional, polished, and impactful.
Who We Are
SQRL2 is a corporate event strategy and production company founded by two Indigenous Women, Michele Young-Crook and Janice Gladue.
With more than twenty years of experience creating conferences, summits, forums, and corporate gatherings, we understand what it takes to move an event from an idea to a room people remember.
Our work brings together strategy, production, logistics, partnerships, and audience experience to create events that feel seamless, purposeful, and built for impact.
Alongside client work, we also create and produce signature events of our own, including the Rezolution Summit and Ascend, each one kept deliberately small so the people in the room can actually connect.
Strategy.Execution.Impact.
The Experience
Curated, Capped Attendance
Every SQRL2 event is capped and kept intentionally small. No overflow rooms, no crowded ballrooms, just enough people to make every conversation count.
Relationships, Not Business Cards
Attendees leave with mentors, collaborators, and a stronger community, not just a stack of names
Networking That Works
Longer breaks between sessions, paced so people actually connect instead of rushing to the next session.
Purpose driven events. Real impact.
We create and produce national events designed to connect people, elevate important conversations, and create opportunities that continue beyond the room. Every SQRL2 event is intentionally kept small. No crowded ballrooms, no rushed hallway conversations, just enough people in the room to make every connection count.

Indigenous wealth creation
The Rezolution Summit brings together Indigenous entrepreneurs, leaders, investors, and organizations for conversations focused on wealth creation, ownership, business growth, and long term economic opportunity. Built by Indigenous women, the Summit is kept intentionally intimate, a room built for real relationships, not just business cards. Alongside the Summit, we host a BINGO fundraiser to raise funds for the Rising Futures Bursary, supporting Indigenous youth with lived experience in the child welfare system.
