Olympic Games

An International Broadcast Centre is created at every Olympic Games. Broadcasters from around the world build studios in what is generally a large conference centre, like Georgia World Congress Center, which was used for the Atlanta Games. The Host broadcaster provides each of these rights-holders a video and audio feed from each venue, beauty shots from around the Olympic venues, transmission facilities, etc. The International Broadcast Centre for the 2008 Beijing Games is located in the Olympic Green Convention Center.
