The Challenge
Solidsport is the largest streaming service in Scandinavia for live sports and is both a content owner and distributor of live sports. They stream over 50,000 games annually. Solidport sought a cutting-edge way to allow clubs, leagues and tournament owners the ability to host their own broadcast channel and create their own revenue streams.
The Solution
Solidsport decided to partner with Vislink’s Netherland office due to its experience in developing live streaming technology, impressive range of global broadcasters and TV production companies as customers, and innovative AI-driven IQ Sports Producer platform for live sports production. With initial success, Solidsport decided to accelerate the number of automated sport broadcasts that they cover in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and the Baltic region by adopting AI technology. The IQSP platform is being adopted at each location to live stream games complete with graphics and highlights without the need for an onsite camera crew.
The Result
By utilizing the power of AI solutions provided by Vislink, Solidsport has unlocked new ways of creating cost effective live content from sports productions. They have empowered clubs, leagues and tournament owners to host their own broadcast channel and create their own revenue.
“We had been looking into this space for quite some time but could not find a solution that was good enough. With this partnership, we are anticipating fast adoption across all of our markets. We are convinced that this is the future for any modern arena today. Thanks to this partnership we are now able to offer a complete solution to clubs and arena owners at a compelling cost for a professional delivery”.
