On 15 September 2009 Lexus held a press conference at the Frankfurt International Motor Show to unveil its new groundbreaking LF-Ch full hybrid premium company concept car. This car heralds a new dawn for Lexus as its younger, bolder and more dynamic than any other Lexus car before.
Two members of the Stream UK team were in Frankfurt at the event to encode the press conference and stream it live using the Stream UK content delivery network (CDN). This was another example of Stream UK’s ability to perform on an international job in short time frame. Stream UK’s team setup, managed and oversaw the live streaming of the event while keeping to a specified budget.
The press conference gained worldwide attention receiving over 650 connections from 26 countries worldwide. An on-demand version of the press conference is available HERE
