We’re coming to the end of the International Tax & Legal Academy being hosted in Copenhagen. Across the course of this week, we’ve tackled Town Hall sessions for over 600 people right down to small meetings fit for 10. Our large crew of skilled technicians have been working around the clock to assure everything goes smoothly. The two arctic lorries arrived on Saturday, this was then followed by a hectic Sunday for the rigging of the event. 

You’ve been framed!

We’re flying out to Barcelona in late April to provide AV support and general technical assistance at a Global Management Conference.

At the end of March, a huge crew of 29 will be flying, or driving, out to The Tivoli Hotel in Copenhagen, we’ll be there providing set & stage, AV and general tech support across the 5-day-long International Tax & Legal Academy.  

 Every year we undergo a strict PAT test which ensures all the electrical equipment we are using onsite is safe and reliable to work with. The equipment is tested and either passed or failed based on a range of variables such as earth continuity, lead polarity and insulation resistance checks.

We’re looking forward to using much of our newly purchased kit that we’re yet to fully try out this year.

We purchased a gorgeous Sony XDCAM PXW-FS5 last month and after taking it along to one job, we’re already in love. The crisp 4k lightweight camera has already proven to be a stunning piece of robust and versatile kit.
