In a recent Atomos and NDI case study, we learn how MMG Events harnessed NDI technology with a range of Atomos monitor-recorders to connect 26 countries for a global event. The team achieved seamless delivery through real-time communication and content sharing, effortlessly overcoming complex logistical challenges.
MMG Events faced a challenge when they were tasked with the job of producing a four-day diversity and inclusion festival for the insurance industry. The event, spanning 26 countries and reaching over 60,000 participants, was built around NDI technology. But, MMG Events overcame the challenge exceeding all expectations.
“Ryan Majchrowski, CEO of MMG Events, faced an challenge: producing 150 hybrid and virtual sessions that spanned four days and ran around the clock,” said Atomos. “Each session needed to be live-streamed across six concurrent channels and made available on-demand within minutes. This involved coordinating AV teams across 26 countries, requiring extensive signal testing and onboarding to integrate hybrid and virtual elements seamlessly.”
“Live only happens once – redundancy is key. Guiding MMG Events’ approach to ensuring every layer of the production was secure, scalable, and adaptable to the demands of such a dynamic event.”

The Solution:
To tackle this event, MMG Events had a carefully crafted workflow including NDI technology and the Atomos Shogun & Ninjas.
“During the event, MMG deployed over 200 NDI signals across their network, providing exceptional flexibility and allowing signals to be redirected anywhere within the studio,” says Atomos. “Monitoring was centralized using NDI Studio Monitor, combined with Atomos Shogun screens to display extended desktops. BirdDog Flex with Atomos Ninjas were used as reference monitors, and proactive monitoring enabled the project manager to follow onboarding processes, watch streams go live, and address technical issues before they could disrupt the live event.”
