SRG wins IOC gold with ski production

SRG produced the world signal of all alpine races of Sochi 2014 (Downhill, Super G, Super Combined, Giant Slalom and Slalom) on behalf of the host broadcaster "Olympic Broadcasting Services". Responsible on the part of SRG were project manager Karin Nussbaumer and director Beni Giger with their teams. A good 100 employees from the SRG corporate units SRF, RTS, RSI and TPC were deployed for the Olympic production. The silver and bronze awards went to other producers for covering the figure skating and cross-country skiing competitions respectively.

The award ceremony took place in front of 500 invited guests, including Prince Albert II of Monaco and IOC President Thomas Bach. With the "IOC Olympic Golden Rings Awards" in gold, silver and bronze, the International Olympic Committee honors the best television productions of the Olympic Games every two years.
