Customer Profile

Every year the Ministry holds around 800 events, ranging from small meetings of 20 people in flexible spaces to large seminars of 250 to 600 delegates from around the world.

Challenge

Following a public procurement tender, Shure was retained by the Ministry of Economy and Finance to equip its meeting and conference rooms with Microflex™ Complete Wireless conference systems. These replaced old wired systems judged to be obsolete and unattractive. Shure understood the demands specified in the RFP, including simultaneous interpretation, speed and ease of deployment, and was able to deliver a solution that integrated quickly and easily in the space.

Solution

Microflex Complete Wireless allows international delegates to communicate with each other under the best possible audio conditions. The elegant and reliable MXCW solution is engineered to deliver a flawless sound experience. Its functionality enables representatives from different countries to be easily heard and understood without the risk of interference or loss of connection. Flexibility is crucial. The Ministry’s events department is often asked to set up a meeting space, accommodating some 30 participants around a table – with less than an hour’s notice. In a complex and ever-changing environment, the department must respond quickly without sacrificing performance or audio quality. It’s therefore imperative for the Ministry of Economy and Finance to be able to rely on a solution that is flexible, easy to use, and deployable in under 10 minutes. For these reasons, the Ministry chose MXCW for its meeting and conference rooms.

Advantages

30 delegate units deployed in only 5-10 minutes. An attractive solution, sustainable and reliable, for top-level meetings with no compromise on quality.
