Brentwood Communications has recently seen a large increase in enquiries from a range of events and production companies looking for robust and reliable radios for the indoor and outdoor events.
Back to the future for two-way radio
With the advent of mobile phones, there was a concern within the two-way radio industry that there would be a decrease in demand for its services, but in fact the opposite has happened. Mobile phone users have increasingly become disillusioned at their complexity and lack of coverage.
"Therefore we're seeing a steady but sure return to radio usage across a range of markets - and none more so than from event organisers looking for reliable communications". Says MD James Miller.
Different uses by the events & entertainment industry
These organisations require two-way radio communications for a variety of different uses:
- On site security communication
- Event logistics and crowd management
- Health & Safety
Digital vs. Analogue
With the advent of digital technology, many event organisers are now choosing to hire digital radios over traditional analogue radios. These new generation of two-way radios are extremely secure, making eavesdropping into conversations become practically impossible. Not only that but users can make 1-2-1 calls plus utilise GPS on the digital radios.
Communication strategies
An increasing amount of event organisers need more than just equipment but assistance with their communication strategies, particularly with regard to health & safety.
For instance one such company required sophisticated programming to enable users to contact individuals and user groups in the event of an emergency. Such is the potential complexity of new technology that we use a consultative approach for customers with a high number of users.
