The World Economic Forum has used a Riedel MediorNet system for AV signal distribution and processing at its 2022 annual meeting, while the company's Artist digital intercom matrix and Bolero wireless intercom system delivered crew communications.
Held in Davos-Klosters, Switzerland, the 2022 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting brought together nearly 2,500 leaders and experts from
around the world to collaborate on tackling global issues and finding solutions to the world's most urgent challenges. For live
coverage of the event, a Riedel MediorNet system provided commissioned television production companies such as SRF, EBU, and Swisscom with video
and audio feeds from the meeting, including interpreter channels.
The system consisted of more than 30 MediorNet nodes, including MicroN
UHD and MicroN high-density media distribution network devices, in addition to nine RSP-2318 panels including the MediorNet Control App for
signal routing, all installed across eight production studios and the master control room (MCR).
For crew communications, Riedel's Artist-1024 matrix
intercom mainframe was used with 16 RSP-1232HL panels. The Artist-1024 allows for flexible placement of nodes to reduce wiring and setup
costs while enhancing system reliability with a dual-ring fibre-optic network topology that provides full redundancy. In addition, the Artist platform
integrates with Riedel's Bolero wireless intercom system, which consisted of 18 antennas and 42 wireless beltpacks for the 2022 annual meeting.
