The Feast is a Social Innovation Conference based in New York bringing together leaders from across industries to engage each other in creating world-shaking change. Participants included Arcade Fire, Beth Comstock (GMO of GE), Gillian Ferrabee (creative director at Cirque du Soleil), James Adams (deputy chief technologist at NASA) and Paul Farmer (Founder of Partners in Health) as well as corporate partners such as Intel, NBC, Absolut and Microsoft. The Flux was brought on to provide global strategy, all creative direction and production support.

Working closely with the Feast's core team, strong strategic support was provided pertaining to most aspect of the conference. The event centered around challenges put out by the speakers to the attendees and then followed by a day where attendees formed small groups and responded to on one of the challenges. The Flux spent a lot of time refining the process and was instrumental in integrating the activities happening at the conference with the online initiatives.

The conference lasted 3 days and was followed by an online effort called Feast Worldwide, where 3000+ people gathered around the world to have dinners and find solutions to the challenges we proposed at the conference. The Flux conceived and designed the online platform which allowed all participants to communicate with each other via a fully integrated Twitter solution. We also partnered with Microsoft Bing and used custom mapping applications to allow users to see what was going on internationally as it was happening.

The Flux led the transformation of an entirely raw space in the Lower East Side of Manhattan intended to showcase and celebrate the latest in social innovation. The space was comprised of large scale art pieces curated from local artist and was used as a platform to host dinner and dance parties for all guest and on the last night, for the wider public.

The Flux provided strategy, logistical support and production for the Feast Hackathon organized with partner Intel. The Hackathon brought some of NYC’s best talent to look at how Vibrant data could be used to improve the lives of seniors and single parents.
