CSX
Annual Shareholders Meeting
Large Event & Tent Production Agency
CHALLENGE
Amidst a hostile takeover attempt, CSX wanted to demonstrate strength, resolve and capability to shareholders by staging the event on the rugged grounds of their then only recently restored sprawling intermodal rail yard in New Orleans – less than three years after Hurricane Katrina had completely destroyed it.
SOLUTION
Craft a unique and fully functional complex of Losberger clearspan tent structures on the rail yard expanse from the ground up – replete with flooring and carpeting, HVAC, power, security, telecom and computer networking, media support and both graphic and scenic design – all to accommodate multiple activity centers for discrete and topical business presentations.
Other logistical and technical services provided include:
- Integrated A/V systems
- Teleprompters
- Traffic and flow mapping for attendees and parking
- Attendee & executive lavatories
- VIP transportation
- Fabrication/construction
- Insurance
- On-site staffing
- Overall project management
RESULT
We promised to deliver – and delivered even more than we promised – leading to a seven-year partnership with CSX across a variety of projects and formats.
