IBC’s own video team has been innovating for IBC2026, moving from a traditional video capture setup to an integrated remote-first workflow to capture and deliver session content.
The new model sees remotely operated PTZ cameras across seven conference and show floor locations. Sessions are captured at the RAI and transferred to a remote team in Prague who edit them for delivery to the editorial team in Amsterdam for final review and publication.
The new workflow means hundreds of hours of session video can now be edited offsite, rather than relying on onsite production resources and edit suite space, which is at a premium.
On-site camera teams can instead concentrate on live and unscripted elements of the show, including breaking stories and highlights. Working alongside IBC365 and The Daily as an integrated media team allows writers and video crews to respond directly to the stories emerging across the show.
Joe Crimp, Head of Digital, Publisher IBC365 and The Daily said: “It’s been really exciting to see a streamlined production model working in practice. Collaboration is at the heart of IBC, so it’s great to see our newly integrated media team embracing that in how we’re delivering content from IBC2026.
“We talk a lot about innovation at IBC and it’s important to apply that thinking to our own operating models too. We’re keen to build not just on the value of the content we produce, but the value of the workflows and operating models behind it,” he added.
