As the whole world began to shelter in place, an unprecedented number of businesses and entire industries shut their doors indefinitely. The Live Events Industry was one of the first of these to close down and will likely be the very last to reopen. Some companies may not survive the long drought with no work. But, once the shock subsided, many of these companies began to look around at the equipment and knowledge they possessed and realized they might be able to make a major difference in the fight against the Coronavirus. This show will look into a few of these companies and the ways in which they banded together to pivot their resources for the greater good.
