PROJECT

QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY BELFAST, ONE ELMWOOD

MGA COMMUNICATION PROVIDED A SERIES OF AV TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS FOR THE NEW STUDENT CENTRE AND STUDENTS’ UNION AT QUEEN’S… AV SOLUTIONS

M GA Communication provided an AV technology system for the MEP installation of One Elmwood, the new Student Centre and Students’ Union at Queen’s University in Belfast. The installation included Infra- Red Induction loop systems in the large venue halls / rooms as well as fixed wire induction loops at reception desks. This helps people who use a hearing aid or loop listener to hear more clearly. The open-plan, modern 10,000 sq m space cost £30m and will accommodate 25,000 students and staff. The new building features vibrant social and commercial spaces such as the Mandela Hall and state-of-the-art facilities for clubs and societies and will transform the provision of student services and support offered by the University. MGA Communication is based in Ballynahinch

and has been at the forefront of AV technologies since its formation in 1994. They are the choice of many Irish and UK electrical contractors when it comes to providing high-end integrated solutions. Specialising in working to tight deadlines and budgets, the company provides quality installation and after-sales service. Commenting on the completed job, Aaron McKeown, Managing Director, said, “It’s always nice to be involved in such a prestigious project, and the new Students’ Union building is certainly that. “It gives me a sense of pride when I drive by it and realise what this project will mean for the future generations of students at Queen’s.” Aaron was full of praise for the collaboration with electrical contractor NUGENT. “It was great to work with such a prestigious company on this iconic building.”
