The future of sports is being transformed right before our eyes, driven by 5G technology. 🏟️ With Ericsson and its partners delivering unparalleled 5G network experiences at major sporting events, the fan experience is reaching new heights. During a single tournament game this summer, two terabytes of data per second were transported over the Deutsche Telekom network. This staggering number highlights the growing demand for seamless connectivity as fans engage with their favorite teams and share moments in real-time. What’s even more exciting is how 5G is opening the door to immersive experiences like augmented reality, allowing fans to access multiple player stats, replays from different angles, and even real-time broadcasts through a 5G ‘network slice.’ Imagine watching a game and being able to switch views as if you were in control of the camera. 📱 As 5G continues to evolve, it’s not just enhancing how we watch sports—it’s transforming the entire industry, from athlete performance to stadium operations. Have you ever used 5G at a sporting event and what was your experience like? #5G #SportsTech #TeamEricsson

Off-season is such a hectic time, but represents a brilliant opportunity to realign your strategy to your technology estate. I am sure plenty of clubs in my network would benefit from a Technology Health Check, like the offer below.

What Price Peace of Mind? Do you have full visibility of your technology estate, and is it aligned to your strategy?   For many sporting organisations and venues, the brief close season is nigh and often the only time in the year to take time to review before the new season kicks in and there is little time for more than business-as-usual.    The right technology is critical to the operation of a venue, and underinvestment in your technology estate is a false economy, but all too often ‘tech’ sits in a siloed space, disconnected from the rest of the business, and not aligned with the club’s strategy. We spoke about this in our recent webinar Elevating the Role of Technology in Sport.   The price of technology failure – especially on event day – can be huge both in revenue and reputational terms.   Discovering the ‘unknown unknowns’ is crucial, and PTI’s expertise derived from working solely within the sports and entertainment sector gives us a view through the appropriate lens to conduct a Technology Health Check which will:   ✅ Consider the whole technology estate, from stadium access control and ticketing to ePOS to Wi-Fi to IPTV to data solutions to app and website  ✅ Identify opportunities to improve efficiency / revenue generation ✅ Identify risk, including any immediate red flags ✅ Identify in-flight and upcoming technology projects, and assess how they align with the company and technology strategies ✅ Identify quick wins ✅ Provide a high-level plan for moving forward  ✅ Give you peace of mind that crucial operations are not likely to let you down   Our approach is light touch, and we can offer various options depending on the depth of the requirements, with our basic health check only £5,000.   Get your next season off to a good start by knowing a few more of the unknown unknowns and gain clear sight of your technology estate.   To find out more, contact dan.smith@ptidigitalgroup.com / Dan Smith https://lnkd.in/e6BvtTva
