Carnegie Hall Opening Night: A Virtual Gala
Empire was honored to work with Carnegie Hall on their Opening Night of the 130th Anniversary Season: A Virtual Gala. Empire provided private Zoom rooms for Carnegie Hall’s Gala Committee members, each with their own custom videos featuring performances by premier artists. Empire is honored to work with Carnegie Hall and support their efforts to keep the arts and entertainment alive during this pandemic.

Guests received their first taste of technological innovation at registration, where they were welcomed by name on a reactive LED screen installation covering the full width of the entry wall. A large lunch café was created with a décor scheme that incorporated custom-built, ceiling-high steel LED frames draped with foliage to create smaller, intimate restaurant-style spaces that displayed both technology and nature.
A series of breakout sessions presented content targeted to attendees’ varied interests, while imagery displayed throughout the venue showcased real-life applications of how products designed to empower developers help to unleash the power of data and reimagine possibilities that will improve our world.
Every element of Microsoft Connect(); from registration, breakfast and keynote, to lunch and evening cocktails, were custom-designed to communicate exacting brand messaging and to deliver a high-touch guest experience to this important audience. The keynote and breakout sessions were livestreamed through an onsite studio built for this purpose and content was watched online by millions around the world.
Empire is proud to collaborate with Microsoft on this annual, top-tier business communication event.
