Unicredit Group

London, UK

The UniCredit Group is a major Italian international financial institution with offices in 22 European countries. Its current market leading position was established following the merger of nine of Italy's most prominent banks and the subsequent union with Germany's HypoVereins Bank and Italy's Capitalia Group.

When Unicredit Group decided to relocate to a newly-built London headquarters building at Moor House, London Wall in London, proAV was commissioned to deliver a wide range of professional audio visual and video conferencing systems.

A wide range of offices, meeting, conferencing and presentation rooms located across six floors of the new building required an innovative AV solution. So, proAV installed sophisticated audio visual and video conferencing equipment and the industry's latest cutting-edge technologies throughout Unicredit Group's facilities.

Key equipment includes wide-ranging, fully-interactive multimedia presentation systems, building-wide MediaStar Pro analogue TV and MediaStar Evonet to the dealer area and state-of-the art AMX controls throughout.

All source switching control video and audio equipment is centrally located within a communications room with direct cabling for loudspeakers and microphones and capacity for all other signals to be routed through CAT6 cabling utilizing Extron transmitter/receivers.
