Scaleway : an immersive space-themed IT trade show

To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Scaleway (from group Iliad) asked WATO to organize an immersive IT trade show with keynote addresses and a magnificent closing party for 800 guests.

In just two months, WATOxScaleway took up the challenge, the biggest stake being turning an empty 4,000m2 shed into the mecca of tech for a day.

The event included:

• A trade show including 40 partner booths and a Scaleway booth; conferences with silent disco headphones
• 2 keynote addresses to introduce their new products
• A staged moment to stop the keynote and kick off the evening event
• Scaleway suits for all guests
• A custom-made rocket built by an artist
• Paintball on life-size aliens
• A geodesic dome in which tumblers had laser sabre fights
• Custom-made stage design
• A promenade performance
• Light painting
• Bodypainting
• A hot dancefloor
