Sponsor Delta Air Lines created an immersive installation to introduce its new collaborative research center dubbed the Hangar. Inside the space, 6,000 LED lights simulated a star-filled sky. Attendees could climb throughout the dream-like environment and then submit innovative ideas for Delta to explore.

Creating an inspiring environment is one of the four pillars of the conference, and each year has a different look and feel. "We want to be a bit edgy, a bit shocking even," said Richard St-Pierre, C2MTL president and partner.
