The Need for a Strategic, Impactful Offsite

EvenUp Law is a mission-driven legal technology company using AI to help personal injury lawyers and victims access justice. With over 300 employees distributed across North America and a fast-paced culture centered on innovation and purpose, the leadership team saw a retreat as a critical investment in alignment, connection, and momentum.

They needed an offsite that balanced creativity and inspiration with budget awareness - one that would energize their people without unnecessary extravagance.

That’s where Flok came in.

Finding the Right Fit, Without Overspending

EvenUp initially considered destinations across the U.S., but pricing and availability for a group of 400 quickly narrowed the field at 6 months out. Flok proposed Montreal - a vibrant, international city that offered the right balance of value, venues, and cultural energy.

With Flok’s expertise, they not only negotiated favorable rates, but were also able to leverage the favorable exchange rate to stretch EvenUp's budget even further.

The Result: Aligned, Energized, and Connected

The retreat featured curated breakout experiences - from workshops on the future of legal tech to wellness sessions on the rooftop terrace. Evening events embraced local flair, including a private dinner in Old Montreal and a team curling competition. Employees overwhelmingly found the retreat to be a valuable use of time - with 96% giving top marks to the overall experience. Sessions like the Values Awards and the Investor Chat received especially high praise for fostering alignment and purpose. While feedback was largely positive, it also helped inform future improvements - like building in more downtime and adding additional food variety.

Designed for Impact, Not Excess

EvenUp didn’t want a luxury retreat for the sake of appearances. They wanted something that reflected who they are: smart, mission-driven, and thoughtful with resources.

Flok delivered a retreat that proved you don’t need to spend extravagantly to create meaningful experiences that inspire, connect, and recharge a team.
