Glasgow City Council, along with the City of Berlin, is staging the inaugural European Championships in 2018.
The European Championships requires a reliable Event Management Systems service that will support this high-profile event. It needs to satisfy a diverse range of users, including Championships organisers, the athletes, the media personnel and officials.
The technology function is one of the centrally driven areas that provide cohesion and integration across the Championships. The provision of Event Management Systems (EMS) for the 6 sports held in Glasgow will form a key component of the centralised technology services.
A key requirement of the marketing strategy is to create digital channels that will engage with our target audiences in a creative and innovative way. This should be based on a robust, secure and cost effective technology offering that ensures Championships-wide connectivity, information and public facing services that are fit for purpose and in-line with GCC's core values. Integrated Digital Media channels will play a central role in this strategy providing public engagement through online platforms and social media channels as the primary source of up-to-date information on the Championships.
