The Challenge

  • Execute a Times Square takeover with a one-hour roadblock on as many units as possible the night before Earth Day to raise awareness about Algorand's carbon negative blockchain protocol.
  • Syncing timing and brand colors amongst the different screens to accomplish a cohesive takeover.

The Solution

  • Harness existing relationships with multiple media owners to coordinate the takeover that encourage people to turn off their screens for Earth Day.

The Results

  • Program was executed exactly as planned with screens uniformly going green and then turning dark.
  • The execution and message was picked up by numerous news sites including Yahoo Finance, Coindesk and Fast Company and many more around the globe.
  • Feeds lit up with shares and comments across all social media platforms.
