SVG Europe Women Scotland: Watch session recordings from Connecting with the Community event in Glasgow

Video recordings from the SVG Europe Women event Connecting with the Community 2024 (Glasgow, 21 March 2024) are now available to view on-demand.

Nurturing the sports broadcasting ecosystem

In the first session, we hear from Tom Giles, IMG Studios’ vice president, director of engineering, EMG UK sales director Angela Gibbons, Heather Andrews, freelance sound designer and engineer, and QTV chief technology officer Gareth Gordon. They discuss how OB firms, broadcasters and production companies from Scotland and England need to encourage, support, mentor and utilise newer people post-learning who are moving into the Scottish freelance community, ultimately for the growth of the region’s ecosystem.

Mind the gap – Fostering diversity and equality

This discussion explores how an inclusive and equitable workforce makes business sense and can be achieved for the Scottish sports broadcasting industry, while simultaneously helping to plug skills gaps within this region. The speakers are Timi Adegunwa, founder and chair of Black & Scot, a dynamic organisation committed to elevating black excellence in Scotland and beyond, and EMG’s group environmental, social and governance director Rohan Mitchell

Connecting with the Community took place at the Poetry Club in Glasgow on 21 March 2024, in association with QTV.
