Zeppos & Associates Assists in Presidential Visit

When ZBB Energy Corporation, a company specializing in renewable energy storage, was contacted by the White House to host President Barack Obama during a visit to Wisconsin, the local company turned to Zeppos & Associates for assistance in working with the White House staff to help coordinate and plan the event. Executives at ZBB recognized the need for outside help from a team with a track record of success on high-profile situations, and they saw a perfect fit in the Zeppos team.

Zeppos & Associates worked with ZBB executives, the White House Advance team and Secret Service staff over the course of a week to plan and prepare the complex logistics and media needs for the presidential visit. On the day of President Obama’s tour and speech, team members from Zeppos & Associates assisted with press check-in, media relations and event coordination - especially necessary whenever a president visits.
