The first-ever Emerge Impact + Music is a wrap. OK Go’s salty confetti has been swept up. Poppy’s crazed crowd has dispersed. Whatever Christeene was spitting has hopefully been cleaned off of Bugsy’s Cabaret. We’re exhausted, inspired and overwhelmed by all the brilliant music, conversation and ideas that infiltrated the Strip this weekend.

If you were there, thanks for joining us. If you missed it, we’ll have tons of video clips and stories from Emerge in the coming weeks. In the meantime, experience a tiny sampling of the magic through these photos from three days of impact and music in Las Vegas.
