FAQ

EVENT QUESTIONS

What event technology services does Jacobs Tech provide?

Race timing with MYLAPS, live and official results, results websites and screens, registration and participant data, temporary networks and Wi-Fi, operations-room setup and control, and on-site IT support with devices and troubleshooting.

Which events has Jacobs Tech worked on?

In Lebanon we currently run race timing for ProSetup Lebanon. Past work includes the Beirut Marathon for 12+ years (2013 to 2025), the Doha Marathon by Ooredoo in 2025 and 2026, and the Riyadh Marathon in 2026.

Do you work on events outside Lebanon?

Yes. Event technology is delivered on-site. We have worked race day in Qatar and Saudi Arabia and are available for events across the GCC, the wider Middle East and North Africa, and Africa.

How are race results verified before they are published?

Electronic timing data is checked against backup and manual timing records before official results are released. For Lebanese races, results are verified with the Lebanese Athletic Federation.

Can you support smaller races?

Yes. Our work with ProSetup Lebanon covers road races, triathlons, and cycling races of every size, and the timing setup, network, and team scale to the size of the field.

How early should we contact you about an event?

As early as possible. Registration data, timing plans, and operations-room preparation all start well before race day, so earlier involvement makes for a smoother event.
