A leading sports league looked to qibb and Vidispine to streamline content workflows, managing hundreds of games per season. The subsequent automation of content ingestion and press conference summarisation helped significantly improve efficiency. Jonas Michaelis, CEO at qibb, provides greater insight on the project.
Managing media workflows for a leading sports league, with hundreds of games per season, is a formidable task.
