Co-founders Joyce Landry and Josephine Kling met at Holland America Line and discovered they shared a passion for business at sea, and a vision to become the business-to-business resource for meetings on ships. So Landry & Kling Inc. was founded in 1982 — the first company focused exclusively on meetings at sea and cruise ship charters.Landry & Kling also pioneered the use of cruise ships to provide supplemental housing as “floating hotels” for city-wide events starting with DECworld 1987 in Boston, Super Bowl 2005 in Jacksonville FL, and Summit of the Americas 2009 in Trinidad.
