In order to guarantee the smooth holding of such a large-scale and top-notch conference, TAIDEN sent a 10-member team to provide conference support. The support team came to the venue in the end of September to guide the construction, debugging and rehearsal, we also worked with the organizing committee to check and adjust the schedule to ensure that the equipment can run flawlessly. The layout of the conference hall varies from day to day and even from meeting to meeting. To disassemble the equipment, reinstall the corresponding equipment and test them in a short turnaround time require not only the staffs’ excellent professional ability, but more importantly, the meticulousness to memorize the requirements of each meeting and the ability to adapt to the adjustments that may still occur at the last minute. The professionalism and service reputation of TAIDEN people are built and accumulated in such honing again and again!
