TEOS EVENT DESIGNTEOS EVENT DESIGNA Blueprint for Success
An intimate Baltimore experience connecting financial empowerment, creative expression, and the cultural legacy of two landmark albums.
Proposed collaboration only. No endorsement, affiliation, or permission to use JAY-Z-related intellectual property is implied.
TEOS Event Design invites the Shawn Carter Foundation to explore a charitable partnership for the inaugural JAY-DAY. We propose contributing 20% of event ticket sales to the Foundation, with a request that the contribution be directed toward financial literacy education benefiting HBCU students, if consistent with the Foundation’s programs and gift-designation policies.
We seek the Foundation’s blessing to move forward with this proposed relationship and guidance on whether the working title “JAY-Z School of Business” may be used. Any name, logo, charitable-partner designation, or public announcement would be subject to appropriate written approval from the relevant rights holders and the Foundation.
Practical conversations about the tools, mindset, and financial decisions behind building lasting business success.
An interactive space exploring storytelling, writing, personal voice, and the power of ideas.
A guided exploration of music as a pathway to reflection, wellness, and connection.
Each core program is envisioned as a focused 45-minute session. The evening then transitions to an album conversation and social celebration.
Proposed schedule; session order and final timing will be confirmed with presenters. The 40/40 reference is a proposed thematic concept, not an affiliation with the 40/40 Club.
“I want to give hope, awareness, opportunity—and a blueprint for what is possible.”
I share a December 4 birthday with JAY-Z. Usually, I mark the occasion with a solo trip abroad to reset. This year, I want to do something different: bring people together around the lessons that extend far beyond music. As a longtime admirer of his artistic achievements, business leadership, and commitment to opening doors for young people, I see this as an opportunity to turn personal celebration into community impact.
JAY-DAY is intended to inspire attendees to see entrepreneurship, financial knowledge, and creative ownership as possibilities they can pursue with the right tools and support.
This December is a deliberately intimate launch—not the full scope of the vision. The 2026 event will establish the concept, gather meaningful participant feedback, and capture high-quality footage and testimonials to support a much larger, full-day 2027 edition.
The long-term vision is a three-part series, with potential to expand beyond Baltimore. An early relationship with the Foundation could help shape a mission-aligned approach as the program grows, subject to mutual interest and approval.

View Media & Press PortfolioExplore TEOS Event DesignWe would welcome a brief conversation about charitable-giving procedures, any relevant name and brand permissions, and how to make this initiative genuinely useful to the Foundation’s educational mission.
With the inaugural event approaching on December 4, a timely discussion would help us determine what may be communicated publicly and what approvals are needed before promotion.
