After a busy year for RaceTech, which saw it covering major sporting events such as Royal Ascot, The Derby and the Cheltenham Festival, the technical facilities provider has renewed its Bronze sponsorship of SVG Europe.
In the summer, the company worked with AWS and SimplyLive to assess the feasibility, operating costs and benefits of using cloud hosted software as a service (SaaS) technology to remotely produce UK horse racing events. In particular, RaceTech was keen to assess the viability of remotely running multiple events from different courses at a central location. Several racing fixtures have since produced remotely from the company’s hub at Raynes Park in London.
This year was also the 75th anniversary of photo finish technology, with RaceTech celebrating its role in providing this service for three-quarters of a century.
