Overview
During the 2018 Olympic Winter Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) revolutionized its content delivery by launching a real-time, global content engine. We helped replace traditional, static broadcast coverage with dynamic, live storytelling that reached international audiences continuously across multiple digital platforms.
Our teams in operational hubs across Lausanne, London, New York, Los Angeles, and PyeongChang collaborated around the clock to ensure seamless storytelling that adapted instantly to diverse languages, cultural contexts, and time zones. This global coordination was critical to maintaining a consistent narrative while respecting local audience nuances.
The campaign prioritized speed, cultural relevance, and cross-platform engagement, enabling the IOC to deliver compelling content aligned with real-time Olympic moments. Our approach transformed the digital experience of the Games, engaging millions of fans worldwide beyond traditional TV audiences.
The results were remarkable: a 245% increase in page views, an 84% lift in traffic across IOC digital platforms, and record-setting digital engagement across social and video channels. These outcomes showed how digital storytelling, when executed with strategic global coordination, could evoke the same emotional impact as live sports broadcasts.
By integrating a global content strategy, real-time campaign management, and narrative alignment, we helped the IOC set a new standard for sports storytelling in the digital age. The success of this model demonstrated that immersive, culturally attuned digital content could deepen fan engagement and broaden reach beyond traditional media.
This pioneering real-time content engine positioned the IOC as a leader in innovative sports media, proving that live digital storytelling is not just a supplement but a transformative force in global sports communications.
