Google Cloud’s team needed an AV production company in Chicago that could transform an industrial venue into an innovation-driven environment, one that felt fresh, future-focused, and seamlessly supported high-value technology presentations. They selected BlackOak Technical Productions as their corporate event technology partner to bring that vision to life.
Through close partnership with Google, BlackOak turned Morgan Manufacturing, a raw, architectural space, into a fully branded, tech-forward conference ready for product demos, breakout learning, and high-energy networking. Our solution combined immersive lighting, multi-display video, and stage design that elevated the storytelling from the keynote stage to the upstairs sessions.
One of the most unique components of this event was the silent-disco listening experience. Guests engaged in content through wireless audio headsets, creating an intimate educational moment even within a bustling environment.
Behind the scenes, BlackOak handled full audio-visual system design, stage production, wireless microphones and show control, confidence monitors, and a technical staffing team specializing in live event support — enabling crisp communication and reliable delivery every minute.
The result: Google Cloud Live became a vibrant hub of collaboration, product immersion, and connection, proving why leading organizations trust BlackOak as their preferred turnkey AV partner for bold, modern corporate event production.
