Ben Willcox, Event Technology Manager for British Gymnastics, commented,

ADI have been able to meet our requirements for both events, supplying large-scale, unique screens inside and outside the venues. The screens are crucial to the live experience for fans and ticket-holders, so it’s essential we work alongside experts in the field.

 

Nick Robinson, ADI’s Screen Rental Director, commented:

We’ve developed an incredible range of solutions for live sport environments, with some of the largest screens we’ve ever built featuring at the biggest events on the international gymnastics circuit. As the quality of sports presentation increases the platforms for delivery must also evolve, which not only means using high res LED but adding wow factor, with aspect ratios beyond traditional 16:9 and creative play-out solutions.
