This was for their deployment of a 5G private network at scale during the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Extreme E and host broadcast agency Aurora were selected for honors in the Best Use of Remote Production category together with ITV, Sky Sports and BT Sport. Aurora captured the racing through a cutting-edge mix of track, on-board and live drone cameras. Extreme E is a radical new concept of offroad electric racing that takes place in the most remote corners of the planet impacted by climate change. Extreme E’s goal is to marrying the latest technology with sustainability and building solutions to meet the rigors of the world’s harshest conditions.
