A Premier Technology Conference
Salesforce World Tour Sydney 2022 brought together the regional Salesforce ecosystem for a full day of innovation, inspiration, and learning. Held at the International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), the event marked the return of large-scale in-person engagement following a two-year hiatus, featuring keynote presentations, expert-led sessions, product demos, and community networking opportunities. Delegates gained insights into digital transformation, customer success strategies, and emerging cloud technologies, while connecting with peers and thought leaders from organisations across sectors.

Planning and Pre-work
Prior to the event, we presented several single-use headphone options and assisted the client in selecting the solution best suited to their delegate experience requirements. We held production meetings to coordinate access times for bump-in and logistics with other suppliers.
Our technicians mapped radiator positions across the event floor plan, including power distribution and cable routing requirements. Equipment allocations were carefully planned around the venue layout, required signal coverage, and operational redundancies.
All equipment underwent full testing and quality assurance prior to deployment, including 2,500 headphone sets fitted with brand-new foam replacements, more than 800 receivers, two central transmitters, and ten infrared radiators.

Even in a large, noisy exhibition environment, the audio clarity and infrared coverage remained exceptional throughout the event.

Installation to Event Day
Day 1: Truss Mounting and Power
We moved the equipment into the Sydney ICC and mounted four radiators along the central truss at breakout A and breakout B. This configuration provided reliable digital audio coverage for significantly more than the 400 infrared receivers deployed within each breakout zone. We then connected the system to power and ran some preliminary tests on the radiators.
Day 2: Testing
We surveyed the entire silent breakout area to verify radiator coverage and eliminate the risk of signal loss. The infrared radiator configuration delivered seamless coverage throughout all silent breakout areas. We also tested the AV team's audio feeds in our system.
Day 3: Distributing Infrared Receivers
Our team prepared and securely attached Bosch infrared receivers to delegate seating across both breakout spaces (400 in each, 800 in total). All units were fully charged and ready to run for up to 200 hours. Each receiver was carefully positioned to ensure a clean, organised, and presentation-ready appearance.
Day 4: Let the world tour begin!
Upon entry to the silent breakouts, delegates were provided with brand-new sealed headphones and bins to recycle them at the exits.
A Successful Day at The ICC
Throughout the day, delegates enjoyed hearing from many thought leaders and business innovators from organisations such as Macquarie Bank, Accenture, Seven West Media, Salesforce, AFL, Deloitte, NSW Government, UNICEF, among many others.
The long battery life, reliable infrared coverage, and seamless system integration ensured the silent breakout program operated flawlessly throughout the event. The audience was able to engage with the presentations and had no trouble hearing the presenters, even though they were in the middle of a large, busy, and noisy exhibition hall with a lot going on around them.
