During the event “How technologies enable the transformation of the audiovisual supply chain”, held on 24 March 2025 at the MIR in Rimini, Luca Vignaroli (Rai), Andrea Gianolli (One-TV) and Marco Bizzotto (Sony) presented the first results of an experimentation of 5G technologies on a private network (NPN), in the 4GHz band, applied to television production, carried out in Turin and Bardonecchia during the Turin 2025 World University Winter Games, by Rai together with EMG Italy, CVE, One TV, Sony Europe and the WUG Organizing Committee.

The Data Technology Seminar (DTS) is one of the most important international conferences for the study of technologies applied to data in the media domain with special attention to public service media. Rai contributed to organizing the event, moderating sessions and presenting projects that touch upon several key aspects for Public Service Media.

In the occasion of IBC 2024, the most important European fair on broadcasting taking place in Amsterdam on 13-16 September, Rai Research Centre participates in a DVB-NIP (Native IP) demonstration, coordinated by the satellite operator Eutelsat and in collaboration with the technology partner Inverto.

Thanks to this novel technology, TV broadcasting can extend beyond legacy and Smart TVs to reach also  personal devices for a unified viewing experience.

As part of its studies and experimental activities on 5G Broadcast, the standard of the 5G family to deliver TV  to mobile terminals, Rai-CRITS participates in the European 5G Broadcast handset Task Force, gathering members of the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) and BNE (Broadcast Network Europe), with the aim of promoting the introduction of 5G Broadcast functionality in smartphones and preparing the roll-out of 5G Broadcast services in Europe.

The EBU Data Technology Seminar (DTS) is a reference event for operators in the radio and television sector for the in-depth analysis and discussion of technologies related to Artificial Intelligence and data analysis. This year too, Rai contributed significantly to the event, through participation in the Program Committee, moderation of the sessions and scientific presentations proposed by its researchers.
