The end is in sight. Time to celebrate the athletes, and our team behind the scenes. By the end of the Closing Ceremonies, we will have finished with the majority of the Olympic IT. But “it’s not over until it’s over,” particularly when billions of viewers are counting on our Commentator Information System (CIS). During the Closing Ceremonies, our CIS is used by thousands of international media who provide their viewers with live commentary and background information about the show and its performers. All that broadcaster knowledge comes from facts, data and surprising factoids we load into the CIS so viewers at home get to hear it.

As an audience member, you may not remember how many gold medals your country won at these Games, but we are confident the stories of all the medallists athletes will stay with you for years to come. It’s been a long 16 days of Games time IT activity and an even longer five years of preparation to get to this point. Our Olympic IT team has led a group of best-in-class technology partners and delivered a flawless Games experience to a world wide audience of three billion.
Our Information Diffusion Systems worked overtime, ensuring every new delivery channel received the same results at the same time. Our Games Management Systems held up to every challenge it faced and our team of Olympic IT experts made us proud, as usual.
But just because the Olympic Games are done doesn’t mean we are. Our team is busy prepping for the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games.
