In the technical department, we have about 200 technical staff members such as camera operators, video mixers, sound engineers, video engineers, and sports graphics engineers.

For The Tokyo Olympic Games, we were responsible for international productions of football. Our technical capabilities were highly evaluated not only in Japan but also from overseas.
In order to aim for further heights, we are using 3 keywords: change, challenge, and communication, the 3Cs.
Our purpose is creating a positive and friendly work environment that values and develops human resources with high expertise.
