Client: Cisco Systems
Project: Around the World in 180 Minutes
Location: San Jose, California
Event Type: Senior Executive Dinner
Attendees: 400

The Challenge:
Cisco hired ThemeDream to design a memorable, immersive experience for their senior executive conference.

The Results:
ThemeDream produced an immersive thematic experience taking 400 senior executives "Around the World" on a cultural journey of all their senses in 180 minutes where Fairmont Hotel San Jose's Regency Ballroom was transformed into Disneyland-style Epcot Theme Park featuring France, India, Africa, Japan, Mexico and USA. Guests checked in at their gate at Cisco International Airport and were greeted by Cisco Airlines plane stewardesses that welcomed them to their flight through a 757 plane door entrance. Guests strolled through each region nibbling on authentic cuisine, taking photos with costumed actors, decor and backdrops, while listening to traditional music and enjoying live cultural performances by Taiko drummers, Bhangra dancers, Aztecan dancers, French cancan dancers, African tribal drummers & dancers and New York breakdancers.
