We’re lucky to have such a large and diverse network of resellers and service providers supporting our brand. These partners serve as our most trusted ambassadors”bringing FinishLynx technology to new markets and providing timing and event services for almost any sport with a finish line. Anyone timing an event with a FinishLynx system serves as an extension of our brand. It doesn’t matter if it’s a local track & field meet or the Kentucky Derby. When there’s a Lynx camera aimed at the finish line, athletes and fans have come to expect the highest standard of photo-finish results.
