On the 24th of February, the new E-hall at the Stockholm Exhibition and Congress Centre was inaugurated. To strengthen relations and the centre’s brand, clients were invited to an inspiring event that showcased the centre’s characteristics and flexibility. 900 participants experienced the new hall through four themes arranged by Boden & Co Kommunikation AB with Mediatec as total solutions supplier of sound, lighting, picture and camera technology and crew.
Beyond the Meetings of today
The meetings industry’s first “Mega freeze mob’ was arranged in conjunction with insights and studies into the future of meetings and information. Mediatec also presented technology for virtual meetings in which a person is ‘moved’ from one place to another in 1:1 scale. This was visualised through actors who performed the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet.
Beyond Entertainment
Dance group Bounce served up a suggestive show of world-class standard featuring Trampwall, Schizo and Stage Drop, amongst others. Lighting design expressed itself through 46 moving units and was devised by Mediatec’s Christian Irestad.
Beyond Interaction
In an unfurnished room where the atmosphere was delivered through wall projections, an MJ (Mood Jockey) created an event together with participants.
Beyond Conventional
A 60 metre stage through the entire venue, film and TV furniture from the SVT warehouse, modern backdrops, plexi-seating, luxurious chandeliers and interesting ornaments gave guests a dining environment far removed from that of an ordinary event. Entertainment was provided by 5 unconventional acts, all with the signature of Stina Oscarsson and Viktoria Dahlborg. A visual communication of form, colour and artistry.

During the year have we invested in two new remote camera systems, the SONY Z-700 and Sportcams 4 HD from TV Skyline. The cameras have different areas of application and are both High Definition and Standard Definition capable.
Setup can be done as stand alone or together with multiple cameras in fibre network. Preset positions are available and the cameras can be operated over long distances both in and outdoors.
The Sportcam 4 has a unique fibre interface over which HD and SD signals, audio, communication, remote data and even 220-voltage power can be sent. This makes it possible to locate the camera up two 2km away from the OB unit and supply everything using just one simple SMPTE fiber cable.
For more information, please visit our webpage under Wireless and Camera Solutions.
A downloadable technical specification will soon be available at the product site.
