RockForce moves headquarters to Nashville

RockForce is moving its headquarters from Lititz, Pennsylvania, to Nashville, Tennessee. The company operates the live events workforce and production services sector. The new base is the Rock Nashville facility.

The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development announced the move. The state expects 78 new jobs to come to Tennessee because of the relocation. RockForce will make an economic investment of $2.5 million. The company says it will create opportunities in workforce development, venue operations, labor relations, production services, and event management.

Rock Nashville was developed by Merus and Clair Global. Merus was previously known as Al. Neyer. Clair Global is a live event technology company headquartered in Lititz. Clair Global moved its local operations from East Nashville to Rock Nashville in January. The Rock Nashville complex opened in 2025.

RockForce hired Jeremy Young in June 2025 to lead the Nashville office. Young serves as executive vice president of business development. He has toured with Maroon 5, Gavin DeGraw, and All-American Rejects. He managed DeGraw's career through Vector Management/Live Nation. He also led national sales for CAPS/Cast and Crew.

RockForce announced in December that CEO Bob McClintock would move to a board role. McClintock led the original integration of the nine founding companies. Chris Schuman and Shawn Worlow were named co-presidents. Schuman and Worlow are veterans of the production industry.

Shawn Worlow, RockForce president, said in a release that the company is building a space for creativity and collaboration. "We want it to be a welcoming place for our clients, partners, industry friends and everyone who makes our industry go," Worlow said.

RockForce was founded in 2021. It describes itself as the largest integrated workforce and production solutions provider for live entertainment, sports, broadcast, and special events. Deputy Gov. and TNECD Commissioner Stuart McWhorter said the move strengthens Tennessee's position as a national hub for the entertainment industry. McWhorter noted that RockForce is the latest entertainment company to call Tennessee home.
