How Monday.com Used Silent Conference To Elevate Their Event
Executive Summary
In September 2025, Monday.com held its annual Elevate 2025 conference at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. This event served as an important platform for unveiling and announcing the company’s new AI-driven workflow features.
Monday.com engaged HUSHConcerts to facilitate the planned training and certification sessions, which were held in a cavernous, repurposed warehouse environment. The primary objective was to transform a 65,000 sq. ft. raw industrial space into a functional, four-theater presentation hub.
HUSHconcerts successfully executed this transformation by deploying 450 units of its new ZED silent conference headphones. This activation provided a seamless audio experience for approximately 8,000 session uses while successfully mitigating significant acoustic challenges inherent to the venue. The event, as evidenced in this case study, demonstrated HUSHconcerts’ ability to adapt to complex environments while debuting cutting-edge hardware innovations.
Project Overview
Monday.com’s Elevate 2025 event took place September 14-16, 2025, at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The conference brought together 2,500 attendees for a three-day immersive showcase inside a 65,000 square foot raw warehouse space. Monday.com used this platform to unveil its new AI-powered workflow features, with the goal of redefining team collaboration through technology and community engagement.
To help realize this vision, HUSHconcerts was tasked with converting the industrial venue into a fully functional presentation hub featuring four theaters. This project also marked the US debut of Silent Conference’s ZED headphones, supporting presentations, training sessions, and live certification exams with clear, reliable audio for every guest.
Service Delivery and Operations
HUSHconcerts took on the challenge of reimagining a Brooklyn warehouse for learning and collaboration. The team rolled out 450 Silent Conference ZED headphones, equipping four separate theaters that each hosted five to seven sessions per day.
With the ZED model’s hot-swappable batteries, operations were streamlined: staff could keep headphones in use all day without interruption for recharging. The headphones’ improved noise cancellation helped attendees stay focused, despite the warehouse’s open layout and crowd chatter. LED color choices made it easy for guests and staff to identify which theater or channel they were tuned in to, reducing confusion and expediting session transitions.
While the team handled distribution, collection, charging, and sanitizing of equipment for multiple cycles daily, they also tracked real-time data on battery run times and performance. This approach allowed for much-needed on-the-fly adjustments to meet the ebb and flow of attendance across sessions.
Event Challenges and Solutions
Adapting a 65,000 square foot raw warehouse at the Brooklyn Navy Yard into a four-theater conference space brought with it a complex challenge. The acoustics were far from ideal, given that the space was open, full of echoes, and had a constant background hum from industrial AC units. Using a standard PA system would have delivered a confusing wall of sound, making it hard for attendees in different areas to focus on their sessions.
HUSHconcerts addressed these issues by implementing its silent conference headphone systems across all presentations, trainings, and certification systems. However, once the sessions began, a new complication emerged: the AC units’ constant noise was being picked up by the presenters’ lavalier microphones, which threatened both the in-person and livestreamed audio quality.
The problem fell outside the initial AV scope, but the team stepped in nonetheless, supplying headset condenser microphones to presenters. This addition dramatically reduced the impact of ambient noise and restored clarity for listeners.
Because the event featured the debut of the new ZED headphones, HUSHconcerts paid close attention to how the gear performed in practice. The staff actively tracked battery swaps, monitored attendee feedback on the new noise-cancelling features, and adjusted LED color assignments to help guests easily find the right channel.
Throughout the event, staff made rapid, informed adjustments to bolster performance, keep up with demand, and to make sure there were no interruptions to the listening experience.
Results
This ongoing approach, shaped by the ability to adapt and the willingness to step up and solve problems as they arose, played an important role in overcoming the venue’s unique obstacles and delivering a consistent, high-quality audio experience for everyone involved.
Across three days, the headphones facilitated an estimated 8,000 unique session uses. Attendees were able to clearly hear presentations, trainings, and exams, even as hundreds of conversations and industrial humming filled the venue outside the headphones. The high-quality battery management system of the ZED headphones meant there were no lulls in audio, and channel color coding minimized user confusion. The quick fix with the headset mics saved audio quality for both live and recorded sessions, too.
All in all, HUSHconcerts demonstrated an ability to adapt to an experimental rollout of new gear, to deliver clear sound in a tough space, and to provide uninterrupted service for a demanding, multi-session event.
Event Context and Feedback
Elevate 2025 was an important day for technology announcements, but also served as a test of just what was possible in an unconventional venue. Monday.com turned the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s vast, industrial Greenhouse into an immersive, multi-theater learning environment, requiring precise production standards across several days of presentations, trainings, and certification exams.
The ZED headphones’ US launch coincided nicely with this event, putting the noise-cancelling and hot-swappable battery features to the test. Both organizers and attendees noticed the difference right away: transitions between sessions were smooth, there was minimal confusion around which channel to select thanks to the new color-coding, and even the loud background noise from industrial AC units did not disrupt the experience. The shift to headset condenser mics mid-event, prompted by stray noise getting into the speakers’ lavalier mics, made a noticeable impact, too, as presenters could be heard clearly in every seat.
The local event professionals who supported the show praised the adaptability on-site, noting that the team’s willingness to experiment with operational layout, address technical hiccups immediately, and collaborate with New York City’s event staff helped Monday.com make full use of the raw, visually striking space. The consensus from the client was clear: HUSHconcerts’ services made it easy to deliver polished content and pull off a complex showcase in an imperfect environment.Learn more about the event and read more reviews here.
