Carallon is a company of designers, software developers and hardware engineers working together to build industry-leading entertainment technology products. The company specialises in control systems for the entertainment industry, with a long track record of producing iconic, industry-leading products. We provide product development services for many leading manufacturers in the industry. And we innovate as well, turning ideas into products, spawning three industry-leading sister companies. Our multi-award-winning products are in use all around the world: Theme parks. Palaces. Churches. Bridges. Art installations. Malls. Museums. Airports. On the sets of ground-breaking blockbuster films and TV. And on the world tours of international superstars. Carallon was founded in 2004 by seven engineers and developers who’d previously worked together. In 2020 they sold their controlling shares to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT), so that for years to come the company can continue its original vision of being owned by and run for the benefit of its employees. We have grown substantially since we were founded - but the essence of what Carallon is about has remained unchanged.
