In colleges, events often bring students together, marking a moment of unity and celebration. But Henry Hardeman, founder of Veritas Social, believes that producing those events can often be a fragmented experience. In his view, student organizations often experience opaque pricing structures and inflated costs when curating college events. Veritas Social was created to challenge that status quo.
Founded in July 2025, the company is a talent booking and event production company built on Hardeman's experiences in the entertainment industry over the past four years. Veritas Social positions transparency as a business principle and a competitive advantage, particularly for fraternities and student groups navigating high-stakes events with limited experience and budgets. "Many student groups don't have the institutional knowledge to integrate pricing," he says. "And lacking that vigilance may leave them subjected to exaggerated costs." Veritas operates on a premise of clarity, fair principles, and long-term trust, with a goal to generate better outcomes for everyone involved.
