Austin, Texas-based High End Systems set two records of its own at the Opening Ceremony: for the largest quantity of media servers in a live event, and for creating the largest high-definition projection.

Aggreko provided power across 37 Olympic venues in Beijing, Qingdao and Hong Kong — enough to supply over 150,000 homes.

MA Lighting helped transform the Beijing National Stadium into a sea of lights for the Opening Ceremony with its grandMA system.
