Program Management Software Built By Program Managers

Our Story

Hand-Off was born from real experience.

Our founder, Jonathan Melgaard, spent years producing high-profile programs like the Aspen Ideas Festival — managing the intersection of content, logistics, and production across hundreds of sessions and thousands of speakers and participants.

After seeing firsthand how fragmented tools and last-minute chaos burned out even the best teams, he envisioned a better way.

Hand-Off is the result.

A next-generation event and program operating system designed to streamline operations, simplify communication, and empower teams to deliver their best work — without burning out. 

We're proud to be a team of event pros, technologists, and builders who understand the reality behind the scenes — and who believe the future of events and programs should be less chaos, more collaboration.
