Powering the live sports industry's largest events is a massive, and critically important, piece of the puzzle. From maintaining a complex technical infrastructure within a broadcast compound or combating the weather in varying climates across the nation, national and regional sports networks trust the services of Aggreko to keep their productions online in the face of overwhelming challenges.

Fresh off the 2025 NCAA Men's Final Four in San Antonio, Aggreko's Operations Leader Brittany Shannon joined us at the NAB Show 2025 to discuss how the company adjusts and adapts to new technologies as they're introduced to the market, the list of marquee events that the company has been a part of, and how they service their clients in extreme outdoor temperatures.
