The 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris has been marked by both triumphs and controversies. Celine Dion's emotional performance at the opening ceremony was a high point, contrasting with backlash over elements seen as mocking Christianity. South Sudan celebrated its first Olympic victory in men's basketball, while Japan's Daiki Hashimoto led a comeback to win gold in men's gymnastics. In badminton, HS Prannoy of India topped his group with a victory over Germany's Fabian Roth. Adam Peaty of Team GB tested positive for Covid after winning silver in swimming, while Tom Pidcock secured Britain's first individual gold despite earlier Covid challenges. Additionally, data center REITs like Equinix are playing a crucial role in supporting the event's infrastructure.
