Are You Future Ready? HP, EMC3, and Smartstage All Are!

HP Kicks Off Amplify Partner Conference in Las Vegas

Last week saw the return of HP to Las Vegas with their annual Amplify Partner Conference - an event that hosted countless global tech voices, all focused on the theme of Future Ready. From open discussions around the convergence of hybrid systems and generative artificial intelligence (AI) to the unveiling of new product lines and the latest in Amplify channel program enhancements, the global brand team at HP came ready to rock and roll. Now all they needed was a capable event planning partner and an innovative staging hardware team with the local inventory and experience to deliver unique and reliable results for the conference at the Venetian. Smartstage is proud to be the valued partner of EMC3 and their client HP for the ongoing Amplify conference in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas Stage Rental / Global Design Vision

HP doesn't mess around, so bringing in the team at EMC3 (a powerhouse design firm with clients and events all over the world) meant that all foreseeable and unforeseeable considerations would be met with experience. And while Smartstage delivers stage gear all over the world, the Smartstage regional rental program (available throughout the tri-state area of Arizona, California, and Nevada with a warehouse right in the heart of Las Vegas) meant an additional layer of local inventory convenience stacked on top of Smartstage's 50-year legacy for design and manufacturing innovation. Proving once again that the right team, at the right time, with the right gear... can deliver top-tier results every time.

EMC3's design team worked with Smartstage's logistics team to deliver more than just OTS (off-the-shelf) stage gear. Leveraging Smartstage's unique position as both designer and manufacturer as well as seller and renter of proven event hardware solutions, the two teams were able to create a unique and immersive experience befitting HP's position as a global leader. EMC3 met and exceeded the experience goals with unique design and custom aesthetic design elements including:

• The massive 40' x 30' rounded modular main stage with a custom stage staircase
• The beautiful 48' x 40' modular multilevel Innovation Lounge staging
• Custom posh, white vinyl cosmetic flooring and rounded melamine stage skirting

Las Vegas Stage Rentals: Affordable, Reliable, Done!

In the stage rental industry, it's not enough to have great products that are well-designed, or even teams with proven delivery of reliable solutions... these both need to also conform to your team's event budget and venue planning. This is where Smartstage excels, providing the industry with the trifecta of unique, well-designed inventory (products designed for rapid storage, transport, and setup/tear-down by smaller crews), experience to know which combinations of on-hand and custom products will create the ultimate venue experience, as well as the creative-yet-frugal experience to know what your team will need, what they'll want, and how to make this fit within your allotted budget.
