Riedel Communications today announced its return as a sponsor of the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, where the company will serve as the Official Connectivity Integration Provider and will be an Official Partner for Team Scotland. Riedel will deliver the complete end-to-end design, installation, and integration of a comprehensive connectivity and communications ecosystem that will ensure the entire Games infrastructure is connected when the event returns to Glasgow from July 23 - August 2. As part of Riedel's Managed Technology offering, the deployment provides a fully managed turnkey solution covering planning, implementation, and live operations.
Glasgow 2026 marks a new chapter for the Commonwealth Games, prioritizing sustainability and inclusivity. As the Official Connectivity Integration Provider, Riedel will supply communication solutions to ensure reliable data transfer, seamless communication, and spectator safety, aiming to reduce the events environmental impact by utilizing its cutting-edge technology.
For the first time at the Games, Riedel will implement its fully integrated data system, known as the Glasgow 2026 Games Integrated Network (GIN). GIN is powered by Riedel's DIVA+ solution, the company's holistic media backbone designed to scale from smaller deployments to the most complex live events. DIVA+ unifies fiber-based infrastructure, wireless Easy5G extensions, and centralized orchestration into a single IP-based network supporting communications, audio-visual signals, and data transfer, simplifying complexity from planning through live operations. It meets all operational requirements, can be remotely controlled and adapted in real time, offers increased flexibility, and includes smart cable management that reduces the environmental impact across the event.
As part of this approach, Riedel will provide a fully integrated communications solution across all competition venues and operational sites, combining intercom and radio communications into one unified system. This system is part of the Games integrated communications strategy, seamlessly working with all partners to prioritize safety and operational efficiency.
Riedel will link the venues via its Wide Area Network (WAN), ensuring reliable transmission of live broadcast images from the venues to the Broadcast Operations Center, where Broadcast Rights Holders will access them for global distribution. Within the venues, Riedels Local Area Networks (Venue LANs) will deliver connectivity for all operational requirements, including reliable Wi-Fi.
As industry leaders, Riedel offers extensive global sporting experience and expertise with the Commonwealth Games, having provided radio communications networks for Birmingham 2022 and Glasgow 2014, as well as managing the venue intercom project for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games.
It's a real honor to support Glasgow 2026 and contribute to an event of this magnitude that brings people and communities together through sport , said Jan Sander, Senior Account Manager Multisport Events, Riedel Communications. As the Official Connectivity Integration Provider, we take the same approach to technology bringing together networks, services, and workflows through our Managed Technology approach and DIVA+ for seamless and reliable operations across the Games.
Martin Fitchie, Chief Information Officer, Glasgow 2026, added: We are excited to announce Riedel Communications as our Official Connectivity Integration Provider. Renowned for its global reputation, technical expertise, and collaborative approach, Riedel is a valuable addition to our Technology program. Having a sponsor that offers cutting-edge solutions and is committed to mutual success is vital for implementing the systems essential to the Games. We look forward to delivering a connected Games with Riedel Communications.
