The world-renowned FIFA World Cup came to a grand conclusion at the end of July, and behind the scenes, Delta played a pivotal role. As the largest event in history, jointly hosted for the first time by Canada, Mexico, and the United States across 16 cities, it set a new record for spectator attendance. To support the massive transportation demands, Delta's Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) solutions entered the World Cup supply chain, delivering reliable power backup for the Monterrey Metro in Mexico and ensuring smooth public transit operations throughout the event. In this issue's "Special Report", we explore how Delta leverages its global standards and localized adaptability to set benchmarks in the UPS field, strengthening critical infrastructure and driving long-term urban development.
