what they say
Vincent has made a career of creating unique and inspiring events. A graduate of the Masters in Management of Hospitality from the Cornell Hotel School, Vincent started his career at Ian Schrager’s St Martins Lane Hotel in London. Sensing a need to focus on his real passion, events, he joined Michael Stern Productions, one of the premiere European event production firms in the capacity of Event Producer. In 2001, Vincent moved to “his true home”, New York City and worked with Colin Cowie Lifestyle, co-producing several high profile events including Michael Jordan’s 40th birthday, Oprah’s 50th birthday and the opening the Atlantis Phase II in the Caribbean.
Then in 2003, his need to connect people and to constantly create the un-expected led him to begin a new kind of event design company, Connected Productions. Connected Productions was started with an idea in mind: bringing art and technology to corporate and social events. Today, we approach every event we produce with the same idea in mind. Connected is a creative collaborative of designers, architects and producers working towards the creation of the unexpected. Let him assist you in making the connection!
