Open Stack Summit [Innovation at Happo-en]
The Open Stack Summit, an internet infrastructure conference and party, was held in Shinagawa in October 2015. This global event is held twice a year and attended by over 1,700 people. The Grand Prince Hotel Shin Takanawa and Happo-en were selected as venues because they enabled visitors to experience the history and culture of the hosting city.
Conference sessions were held for two days at the Hotel, followed by dinner at Happo-en.
The entire building was decorated as an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) for the first day, with attractions like taiko drumming, geisha performances, and a maid café. For the second day, the first and second floors were reserved for a samurai show, cosplay, and other activities where participants could experience Japanese culture, from the traditional to the modern.
