IT support for sports organisations and media companies
Big files, tight deadlines and teams working from studios, venues and the road. We keep the network quick, content protected and support fast enough for a live schedule, across London, the UK and the EU.
Why sport and media put IT under pressure
The work is public, the deadlines are fixed and the content is valuable. IT has to keep up with all three.
Heavy files, short turnarounds
Video, audio and design files are large, and they need to move between editors, producers and clients without anyone waiting.
Teams on the move
Match days, shoots and events put people where connectivity is unpredictable. Remote access has to be simple and secure.
Content before release
Unreleased footage, contracts and embargoed material are valuable. Access should be limited and traceable.
No second take
A live schedule does not wait for IT. Problems need fixing quickly, ideally before anyone notices.

Questions from sports and media teams
What producers, operations heads and venue managers ask us most.
Can you support freelancers and contractors?
Yes. We can give contributors secure access to the systems they need and remove it as soon as a project ends, without anything being left on personal devices.
Can you provide connectivity for a venue or a studio?
We supply leased internet and design the internal network around it, so capacity matches real use such as uploads, streaming and many devices at once. We would start by understanding how the site is used.
How do you protect content that has not been released?
Through limited access, multi-factor authentication, encrypted storage and backups, with clear records of who can reach what. The detail depends on how your team works, and we scope it with you.
Do you offer support outside office hours?
Yes. Our helpdesk runs 24/7 with a 15-minute average ticket response, which suits match days, shoots and live schedules.
Can you work alongside our in-house IT team?
Yes. We can run IT end to end or fill specific gaps, such as connectivity, security or out-of-hours cover.
