Senior Designer, Inclusive Design Lead

Red Hat Summit brings IT professionals, experts, and innovators, from across the globe to learn, collaborate, and build the future of enterprise open source together. This is where the magic happens.

Digital promotion

For nearly a year, dozens of pieces of unique collateral are designed and distributed across myriad platforms to drive awareness, excitement, and good old FOMO.

These graphics are expressions of the event brand system, and the spirit that Red Hat Summit has come to embody: Smart, fun, exciting, and collaborative. Sometimes they even invite the audience to try on the designer’s hat.

The Virtual Summit Experience

The first Virtual Summit was conceived, designed, and built in 5 wild weeks when the global pandemic put the unexpected long pause on in-person events. Following the award-winning success of that first virtual experience, we continued to expand and refine year over year.

In 2022 we offered a fully customizable dynamic experience that garnered record-smashing attendance and recognition in both the tech and design industries.

The In-person Summit Experience

A smaller event than usual due to lingering COVID concerns, Red Hat Summit 2022 in-person was every bit the immersive experience that dedicated attendees have come to expect.

Combining large scale environmental print branding with digital “wow” moments throughout the space, we delivered on the promise of an event that ignites imagination and inspires innovation.
