Berggruen Institute Hosts Panel Discussion: “Unfolding Cities” in Los Angeles

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 16, 2018 ) Step and Repeat LA is an independently-owned company that specializes in the creation of red-carpet backdrops, which are better known in the entertainment industry as ‘step and repeats’. A step and repeat backdrop is used for photo opportunities at special events and features an array of sponsor logos that have been laid out in a step or diagonal pattern. More recently, step and repeat backdrops have become increasingly popular among everyday consumers and are commonly seen at business events, grand openings and at events for a variety of organizations.

Earlier this year, the Berggruen Institute partnered with the National Academy of Sciences’ The Science and Entertainment Exchange to host “Unfolding Cities”, a panel discussion on urban futures in science and fiction. It was the first event held at the Institute’s headquarters in the historic Bradbury Building in downtown Los Angeles.

In 2010 Nicolas Berggruen and Nathan Gardels sat down with a group of scholars in California to contemplate the challenges to governance in the 21st century. The tentative ideas that emerged from those original discussions became the foundation for the Berggruen Institute through the launch of its various projects and the publication of “Intelligent Governance for the 21st Century: A Middle Way Between West and East”, a Financial Times best book of the year.

The Institute is dedicated to fostering fresh thinking across cultures and disciplines and promoting practices of intelligent governance.

Step and Repeat LA produced a sleek looking 8’ x 16’ stage backdrop for the panel. Simple in design, its clean lines allowed people to focus their attention on the person on camera!
