At the SVG Europe Winter Sports Forum 2026 in Oslo, editorial director George Bevir chatted with Andy Rayner, CTO, and Alex Pannell, chief commercial officer, from Appear at the NEP Group Broadcast Centre.
The discussion explores how remote production continues to evolve: from the growing use of unmanaged public internet for live broadcast, to the challenges of latency, distance and secure signal transport.
The speakers also reflect on the company’s role in delivering large-scale events, including supporting NBC Sports with remote production workflows during the Winter Olympics.
Looking ahead, the conversation turns to a packed summer of global football, where centralised and remote production models, powered by flexible, IP-based infrastructure, are set to play a critical role in delivering live sport to audiences worldwide.
