Who We Are
We’ve been around a long time.
Longevity
In 1894 Edward Maritz started the E. Maritz Jewelry company, a wholesaler and manufacturer of fine jewelry and engraved watches.
Innovation
Reinvention is in our DNA. We pioneered the incentives industry, revolutionized meeting planning, and are transforming customer experiences. In short, we never stop exploring what’s next.
People-Focused
It’s always been about people for us. Whether you’re our client, employee or a program participant, we value you as a person. It’s our strength. And when you work with us, it’s yours.
We’re always looking ahead, but we have a very rich history.
BACKED BY SCIENCE
At our core, we’re a behavior company. The scientific study of human behavior is a central component of Maritz’ DNA and ingrained in the design of our solutions.
We’re uncovering the latest aha moments in behavioral science and sharing their potential with the modern business world. By connecting our network of leading-edge behavioral science experts and Maritz’ Fortune 500 clients, we’re a catalyst for solving today’s business challenges.
Every Person can make a difference.
GIVING BACK
in more ways than one.
People drive communities, too. That’s why Maritz gives both our dollars and time to educational programs that help children and adults reach their full potential.
We give to non-profit partners who share our values of innovation and results. Together, we make a real impact on our communities.
