Mumtaz at the 2013 L.A. Elected Officials Reception

This past July, Mumtaz had the pleasure of putting together the 2013 Elected Officials Reception at the Omni Los Angeles Hotel with delicious food and great drinks, all at the beat of 80’s music. Certainly a soirée to remember with about 500 guests! 

Most business leaders of the Downtown LA area joined us for this event, where they got to meet the newly elected and re-elected Los Angeles City Officials. Between the attendees were California State Senators Kevin de Leon and Alex Padilla; California State Assembly Members Raul Bocanegra, Adrin Nazarian and Reginald Jones-Sawyer, Sr; L.A. County Board of Supervisors Zev Yaroslavsky; LA City Attorney Mike Feuer and LA City Controller Ron Galperin.

It was a great opportunity to network, get to know our current elected officials and hear directly from them what innovative ideas are yet to take place in our beautiful city. Thank you to Ch2M Hill, Chase, Thomas Properties Group, Walmart, Arcadis, CaliforniaApartment Association, Comcast NBC Universal, Mayer Brown, Microsoft, Siemens and State Farm for sponsoring the event.  

Mumtaz would like to give special thanks to Red Carpet Systems, Kathy Faulk, Elaine Morales and Catherine Gibson from the Omni Hotel for helping make this event a great success.

Stay tuned for more Mumtaz news to come!

Mumtaz Marketing & Events was proud of being part of the SEARCH Foundation 2013 fundraiser, where our own president Joella Hopkins is on the foundation board.  At the beginning of the year Mumtaz Marketing & Events was present at the Chicago Marriott Hotel, where SEARCH foundation gathered over 200 guests in what was an extremely successful event, raising $55,000 through ticket sales, auctions during the event and individual and corporate donations.  Definitely a night to remember that will have a major impact on the lives of the recipients who absolutely need it.  This event would not have been possible without the participation of Rentals Unlimited, Island Events and New York Water Taxi.  Thank you all and let’s gear up for the next SEARCH foundation event!!!!!
