SPUC\u2019s management firm,\u00a0Ruggles Service Corporation<\/a>, is celebrating its 50th<\/sup>\u00a0Anniversary this year. Ruggles, founded by Mr. John A. Hinckley in 1974, specializes in managing national and state medical associations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ruggles is a full-service company that handles membership, meeting planning, exhibits, marketing, communications and information technology. What sets Ruggles apart from all other association management companies (AMCs) is that all client-partners are medical associations, leading to best practices. Nearly all technology is built and managed in-house such as SPUC\u2019s website, membership database, exhibit database, abstract system, meeting and membership apps, digital posters and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based in Richmond, Virginia, the company is managed by John\u2019s son, Stewart A. Hinckley, who serves as SPUC\u2019s Executive Director, and 20 SPUC staff team members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
