Dell Technologies World 2019
From the opening video set to the sounds of Queen and Mark Martel to the presentations delivered by Dell Technologies executives and special guests, the CGI Interactive team pulled out all of the stops for this year’s Dell Technologies Global Partner Summit. With over 5,000 partners in attendance, our team worked hand-in-hand with the crew at InVision to ensure an outstanding experience.
Task
Create a strong look that brings to life the Defying Gravity theme and enables variety across the opening video, presentations, and interstitial moments.
This year the General Session took us on a journey to explore what it means to defy gravity and push ahead of the competition. The CGI Interactive team expanded on our event brand guide and created presentations for five presenters, along with five videos that were interspersed throughout the two hours.

The show opener was an animated backdrop synced to the live performance of Mark Martel, who played piano and sang Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now.” This rolled right into the stomping and clapping of “We Will Rock You” as we introduced Joyce Mullen to kick off the event.
Beyond the General Session, we also created presentations for three super sessions that re-used a portion of the stage setup. For breakouts, we designed eight presentations using the template and guidelines that we created for the various teams.
CGI Interactive had a team of six on-site to support the GPS group and to work out any last-minute changes to make this the best GPS yet. It was a full team effort between CGI Interactive and Dell Technologies, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.
