2017 to 2023
Technical production of Kinessor corporate events
Location: Downtown Montreal
Our mandate
For several years, Master D partnered with Kinessor to produce fourteen corporate events in Montreal. Held at prestigious venues such as the Hôtel Bonaventure, Vieux-Port Steakhouse, and Auberge Saint-Gabriel, Master D’s services were tailored to the specific requirements of each event. The expertise provided ranged from creating a lounge atmosphere with a DJ and managing speeches during cocktail hours to the full-scale production of gala evenings. This turnkey service encompassed planning, coordination, comprehensive hosting (including announcements, speeches, award presentations, and prize draws), and artist management. On the technical side, Master D handled professional sound systems, video projection, the setup of video game stations with 60-inch screens, and the design of both stage and ambient lighting.
