Nearly 300 attend SVG Europe’s Sport Technology Reception

Red Bull Media House, Riedel and Origin Digital took home the award for Production Achievement for their impressive work on last October’s Red Bull Stratos launch, while the recipients of the Technical Achievement award were BSkyB and ChyronHego for the development of Premier League player-tracking graphics.

Close to 300 of the industry’s leading decision-makers attended SVG Europe’s annual IBC Sport Technology Reception, which took place on Saturday 14 September.

Joe Hosken, general manager of SVG Europe, expressed his gratitude to sponsors, award recipients and attendees. “The ceremony was a great success, attracting influential sports production professionals and SVG sponsors,” he says. “It’s a unique networking opportunity and a chance to recognise and salute excellent in sports broadcast production and technical achievement. It also gives SVG Europe a chance to say a big ‘thank you’ to its sponsors.”
