Can anyone help please?

My client - in their wisdom - has done away with all VGA and HDMI leads in meeting rooms. The only lead in the room leading to the display monitor on the wall, now being a single USB-A male.

If I plug the meeting room USB-A male into my Macbook Air (running El Capitain 10.11.6) nothing happens. Same true of all the normal things I would do in 'display preferences' to project via VGA/HDMI.

I thought it might be as simple as buying a minidisplayport>USB-A female adapter... but can't find one anywhere, which suggests it may not be that simple! :-/

Many thanks if you have a minute to advise.
