David Bahamón Event Manager

The challenge

Build a recognizable brand from scratch that people immediately associate with technology, digital art and electronic music—while keeping production financially sustainable across completely different venues.

What I did

• Brand concept, logo design and visual identity.
• Designing and printing posters, flyers and promotional assets.
• Budgeting and cost control for each edition.
• Venue sourcing and negotiation (ticketing splits, bar deals and terms).
• Stage design and decoration concept tailored to each venue.
• Installing and operating the sound system, lighting and projection setup.
• Booking, scheduling and managing the DJ and visual artist line-ups.

The result

After two years and 16 editions, our events bring together 200 to 500 guests per night under a well-known local brand in Mannheim. We have built strategic partnerships with bars, clubs and cultural institutions eager to collaborate with us—and this momentum led to opening our own physical space in Mannheim: Atelier Casa West at Waldhofstraße 5.

The challenge

Teach AI, coding and practical computer hard skills through art and hands-on experimentation—reaching both individual learners and schools with a structured, accessible format.

What I did

• My own programme: rhythm and structure, electronic music history, synthesis, programming in Sonic Pi, mixing and a final group live set.
• Sales to schools and institutions in the region, using Claude automations to find and organise contacts.
• Rotating stations in teams of 3 to 5, with classes in English, German or Spanish.

The result

Workshops of 15 to 20 students in schools, open sessions every month at the Atelier and a dedicated website with clear formats and prices.

The challenge

Creating our own format that combines painting and electronic music for people with no experience, with every session covering its costs.

What I did

• Two rooms to choose from: at an easel in coloured light, or at the long table painting with others.
• Canvas or a 3D-printed figure, even one made from a drawing or photo the guest brings.
• Booking website in three languages with a calendar, limited places and online payment; also private and corporate events.

The result

A monthly session at the Atelier with 10 to 15 guests, online bookings and a format that also sells for companies and private events.

The challenge

Supporting SAP Digital Supply Chain at one of the largest industrial trade fairs in the world, with an international team.

What I did

• Project preparation before the fair with the presales team.
• Running the stand during the fair.
• Direct client contact and support for the consulting team.

The result

The stand ran throughout the fair with client meetings, and I learned first-hand how a corporate event of this scale is organised.

The challenge

Running safe, well-coordinated events for 400–700 people — young children and their families — on budgets of COP 15–20 million, on the school's own premises.

What I did

• Annual events calendar, planned with the management.
• Budget of COP 15–20 million per event for the Sanpedritos and closing ceremonies.
• Negotiation with suppliers, event production companies and food & beverage providers.
• Set design and decoration with the teaching team.
• Technical coordination: sound, stage and lights.
• On-the-day logistics for 400–700 people: family arrivals, running order and timing.
• Photos, videos and social media posts before and after each event.

The result

The events became a fixed part of the school year, and the material from each one fed the school's social media.
