From Meh, to Memorable. Holiday Gifting Tips from Rare Assembly.

With Kyla Brennan, Founder, Rare Assembly

If you’ve ever stared blankly at a swag catalog completely uninspired, this session is your antidote.

Join Kyla Brennan, founder of Rare Assembly and former Admin turned entrepreneur, for a refreshing (and slightly rebellious) take on corporate gifting that’s anything but boring. She’ll unpack what makes a gift memorable versus forgettable, how to stretch your budget without looking cheap, and why details like packaging and timing matter more than you think. You’ll leave with insider tips on how to choose gifts that feel personal at scale, avoid the most common mistakes, and vet vendors like a pro.

Kyla knows your world because she started in it. And now she’s shaking up the $200B gifting industry to make sure your next gift is the one everyone talks about in a good way. Whether you’re prepping for holiday chaos or just want a better plan for year-round appreciation, this session will leave you inspired, equipped, and ready to ditch the cookie-cutter gifts for good.
