14th Annual Awards Gala - “A Renaissance in Technology”

The Technology Council of Central Pennsylvania was looking for a creative solution to keep Gala attendees entertained during their annual awards gala, which recognizes the contribution of leading technology firms to the growth and development of Central Pennsylvania.

Knowing that past Gala’s have had a tendency to run long, JPL’s creative team came up with a solution to shorten the awards ceremony and put the focus on the post-gala party which gives the attendees more time to network with industry honorees, winners, and guests.  Playing off the “A Renaissance in Technology” theme, JPL produced a 60-minute ceremony that featured an open air stage that resembled Leonardo Da Vinci’s workshop; fully decorated with lighted columns, hanging picture frames, and a giant circular screen.  In addition to coming up with the creative concept, JPL provided technical support, graphics support, lighting, stage design and construction, audio production, video production, and execution of the live event.  The 60-minute ceremony was capped by a post-gala party, which had attendees celebrating late into the evening.
