Spring Media Group gears up its production planning, and the media rights sales and distribution, of our inaugural European Para Championships (EPC), scheduled to be held from August 8 to 20. 

We will organise ten different Para sports simultaneously in the heart of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, for the very first time, seeing 1,500 athletes from 45 countries compete for trophies.

We strongly believe that the concept of the EPC will contribute to the growth and success of Para sports. 

If you want to get fans more interested in these spectacular sports, you must bring it out to the people. 

For exactly that reason, we use several city centre courts in the heart of Rotterdam as our sports venues. 

The cooperation with Spring Media Group is also going to help us enormously in achieving this important objective.

The efficient production and distribution workflows, together with the wide sales network of the Spring Media Group, is crucial for creating a first successful edition and build-up towards 2027.

Due to Spring Media Group’s experience in creating a platform for upcoming sports, we believe to have found the right partner to build an international audience that these Para athletes deserve, for now and the cycles to come.

Indeed, Spring Media Group is an international full-service sports agency that serves some of the biggest leagues, federations, teams and broadcasters in the world. 

Its business is built around three core areas including rights management, production services, and streaming solutions. 

All of that is very relevant to us not just now, but also in the coming years, in which we hope to develop further.

We are convinced that they are the right party for us to produce and distribute the action. 

They guarantee a reliable and tailor made TV product - using both onsite and remote facilities - fit for the complexity of multisport events like the EPC!
