Azienda/Istituzione
Olympic Broadcasting Services (OBS) was created by the International Olympic Committee in 2001 in order to serve as the Host Broadcast organisation for all Olympic Games, Olympic Winter Games and Youth Olympic Games. The Host Broadcaster is responsible for delivering the pictures and sounds of the Olympic Games to billions of viewers around the world. It produces and transmits unbiased live radio and television coverage of every sport from every venue.
The Broadcast Training Programme (BTP) offers broadcast training to local students in the host country, as well as the possibility to work in paid positions during the Games. The Broadcast Training Programme was created in 1984 for the Los Angeles Games out of the desire to leave a human legacy to each host country of the Games. The programme allows a young generation of students to learn from top-of-the-industry professionals, and gain work experience which will facilitate their entry into the market and access to audio-visual careers. The BTP has started 40 years now, and its success has only grown over time. From its beginning, more than 13,000 students around the globe have joined this programme, initiating their career in a privileged way, as part of the biggest sports event in the planet. In the Milano Cortina edition of the BTP, OBS intends to train around 1,800 local students in 8 different operational areas. This will happen in October 2023. Approximately 1400 of these students who perform well during training will be invited to work alongside our teams during the Olympic Games in paid professional positions.
