The event was described as a "major milestone in developing up to 300 hours of programming delivered to a potential worldwide audience of more than one billion people" by organisers.

It brought together representatives from EPC, which is part of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), who are the host broadcaster of the multi-sport event, members of International Federations (IFs) and the Local Organising Committees in Berlin and Glasgow.

The inaugural European Championships will see existing continental competitions in aquatics, cycling, golf, gymnastics, rowing and triathlon held in Glasgow at the same time, while athletics will take place in German capital Berlin. 

Around 3,000 athletes are due to compete in Scotland between August 2 and 12, while 

A further 1,500 athletes will participate from August 7 to 12 in Berlin.

Participants at the meeting inspected venues, such as the Tollcross International Swimming Centre, the Emirates Arena, due to host track cycling, and the SSE Hydro, the home of gymnastics during the competition.

They also visited George Square and Glasgow Green, as well as BBC Scotland’s facilities, where EPC will set up the Broadcast Operation Centre.

"We are delighted to be hosting the World Broadcaster Briefing for the inaugural European Championships where a compelling backdrop for what will be a must-see, must-attend event will be presented by both Glasgow and Berlin," Glasgow 2018 director Colin Hartley said.

“Under one united brand and broadcast experience both cities will set the stage for a spectacular 10 days of wall-to-wall broadcast which will elevate the status of the European Champions in some of the continent’s major sports.”

EBU director Stefan Kuerten praised the "strong showing" at the three-day event in the Scottish city.

"We've received positive feedback from rights-holding broadcasters and will continue working with all parties to provide the overall production and technical solutions for broadcasters to showcase engaging content for audiences," he said.
