Copilot+ PC launch event: stage with LED screen and a seated audience

Objective

To introduce Copilot+ PCs to the UAE market, demonstrating their AI-powered capabilities through an engaging, immersive event.

Concept

“Unlock the Future” underpinned the entire campaign. The key visual imagines Dubai in the year 2124: an AI-shaped world of clean energy, sustainable industry and education without boundaries, with the Burj Khalifa standing tall in it.

Station 1: Live Captions

On entering the maze, visitors meet a video that is the first clue. The person in it speaks Turkish. The solution is Live Captions: real-time English subtitles, then on to the next station.

Station 2: CoCreate

Visitors use CoCreator on the laptop to design what Dubai might look like in 2124. They start with a simple drawing and use prompts to turn it into a realistic AI-generated image, which is saved to a USB drive and printed for display.
