The ‘Conquering the Air(waves): Private 5G from Land to Sea to Sky’ Accelerator project explores how deploying private 5G networks, particularly through airborne and mobile solutions, can dramatically transform live broadcast production.
This project emerges from successful deployments at the Paris and Marseille Olympic events last year, notably the opening ceremony along the River Seine and sailing competitions offshore.
The objective is not simply to test technological limits, but to create a reliable, scalable system that enhances storytelling for live sports and events. These enhancements include bringing audiences closer to the action, whether that’s from the water, land, or air, and enabling coverage in areas where public networks are unreliable or non-existent. The project’s emphasis on practical, deployable technology means it’s not limited to concept but geared toward real-world use cases with a pathway to commercial adoption.
