Avolites, which works with New York-based Group One as its exclusive US distribution partner for lighting, was chosen for the show thanks to its innovative Titan and Ai range of lighting and video control products.
"Avolites was a true pioneer in the field of portable lighting control systems, founded in 1978 and soon providing to the likes of the Rolling Stones, Rush, and Queen. The Avolites Titan operating system is now the world's favourite lighting control interface with more than 300,000 specialist users, and Avolites 'Ai' video control interface produced the world's largest landscape video surface at the London 2012 Olympic Games, and the world's largest hologram effect in Madison Square Garden in 2014," says Gordon Freeman, executive producer of the show. "That's what leaders do: they innovate, they grow, and they lead. Avolites has a wonderful and interesting history, and we think their story will be meaningful to our viewers."
As part of the show, How2Media sent a film crew to spend time at Avolites' facilities in London to discover the story behind this company.
"It's a pleasure and an honour to be selected by World's Greatest!...," says Steve Warren, managing director of Avolites. "We see Avolites as innovating and leading the way with powerful and accessible solutions for lighting, dimming and media control."
