T-97 Days | 100 Days of Summer

Hi, Christiaan Page here and welcome to 100 Days of Summer. A question I was asked through the comments was, where can I get one of the green jackets you’ve got? This is a very limited-edition Tokyo 2020 Technology Team jacket that was developed by the team in Tokyo. And I was fortunate enough to be able to get my hands on one as part of the technology team, and I’m super proud to be part of this team. So, the answer to that question is, Unfortunately, they are a limited edition. And unless you can convince someone from the Tokyo 2020 technology team to part with it, then I’m afraid you may not be able to get a hold of them.

Another question I have been asked is, what is your greatest fear around the technology delivery? Like any technology delivery, there’s always risk associated with anything that’s electrical or electronic or technological. We spend a lot of time making sure that all of the systems are built to be resilient. We have got extra power, backup power, and backup, A, B, and C systems. A lot of our effort is involved in risk mitigation to allay a lot of those fears. I think this is a good question because we also need to not only think about the physical threats to the equipment but also about the cyber threats. We live in a new era where cyber security is absolutely essential, and there’s a heavier investment in time, effort and energy to ensure the ecosystem is well protected. These are the things we do to counter some of those concerns or fears. We do our best to make sure that everything is going to reach the final audience.

Hopefully those answers help. Please keep them coming, they are great questions. I am happy to share the insights that I have around the game’s delivery. Wherever you are, please stay safe and healthy. and bye for now.
