Why The Ci Group is the right partner for you
Where You’ve Seen Our Work
The most visible Ci Group work is hard to miss. Everyone in Perth will have seen at least one example. There is the LED signage in the foyer at 179 St Georges Terrace or that surrounds the field on TV whenever the Eagles or Dockers play in Melbourne, but the one that’s impossible not to notice is giant cylindrical screen at Yagan Square.
Here is a selection to take a closer look at.
The work of the Ci Group in the workplace may not be as public, but the impact is profound. Not only can the group integrate audio visual technology with office automation and control, but it can also include a range of other technologies to make workplaces more productive.
