Creating Partnerships
MAKING HISTORY WITH MADAM SECRETARY
High Touch Engagement saw a unique opportunity for a partnership between the National Museum of American Diplomacy and Revelations Entertainment, the production company behind the CBS Television show Madam Secretary.
An Eventful History
A CENTURY LATER – WE REMEMBERED THEM
With no living veterans to lead the commemoration of the “Great War,” Congress established the United States World War One Centennial Commission to honor and observe the 100th anniversary of the conflict and finally build a National World War One Memorial in Washington, DC.
High Touch Engagement led the production of world-class events that increased awareness and supported their efforts. Events included the National Memorial Ceremonial Groundbreaking, the National Service of Remembrance at Washington National Cathedral, the Secretary of the Navy’s Reception at Fleet Week in New York City, and the “First Colors” ceremony which raised the American Flag to officially open the National WWI Memorial. We also served throughout the project as advisor to the Commission for protocol and diplomatic engagement.
