A Business Hub for a Tech Giant: The Microsoft Café
Microsoft
For Microsoft, the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos is a key event on the business calendar. Alongside the CEO, the entire CELA (Corporate, External & Legal Affairs) management team makes their way to the snow-covered Alpine town. Their exclusive headquarters during the WEF? The Microsoft Café, crafted and managed by standing ovation.
A Versatile Space to Drive Innovation
The Microsoft Café is more than just a meeting space – it’s a vibrant platform for innovation and technology. Each year, our team takes charge of transforming a bowling and billiard venue into the Microsoft Café, creating a brand experience that embodies Microsoft’s identity. Our goal: to showcase the many dimensions of a global brand in a space that’s both inspiring and functional.
A Lounge Atmosphere That Exudes «Tech-Level Efficiency»
The café is designed as a versatile meeting and business center that offers far more than just physical space. In addition to cutting-edge meeting rooms and the CEO’s office, it features a spacious hospitality area for up to 100 guests. The café’s infrastructure is top-notch, combining aesthetics with functionality. Demo stations, cozy lounge areas, and private meeting rooms invite guests to immerse themselves in the Microsoft experience. Every detail is crafted to ensure confidentiality and create the ideal setting for customer engagement and networking.
