AE Live Named Title Sponsor of SVG Europe Sports Graphics Forum 2026

AE Live has been announced as the Title Sponsor of the SVG Europe Sports Graphics Forum 2026, a leading industry event focused on the evolution of sports graphics and on screen visual storytelling.

‍

Produced by SVG Europe, the Sports Graphics Forum 2026 will feature a programme of expert panels, case studies, and showcases examining how data, augmented reality, and advanced visualisation techniques are being used to enhance clarity, insight, and engagement in live sports coverage.

‍

As title sponsor, AE Live will play an active role throughout the event agenda. The forum will open with welcome and introductions from Nick Baily, CEO AE Live and Will Strauss, Editor at SVG Europe.

‍

AE Live will also contribute directly to two key panel sessions. In “Telling better sports stories with data,” Gem Collister, Web Product Manager at AE Live, will join Patrick Desson (Sky Sports), Kevin Sandford (Warner Bros. Discovery), and Dominik Scholler (Deutsche Fußball Liga) to discuss how live data, advanced metrics, and contextual analysis are being woven into modern sports storytelling.

‍

Later in the programme, AE Live’s Jon Hobbs, Business Development Manager, will take part in the panel “On the Pitch: Using AR to add meaning, not noise,” alongside Rosemary Lokhorst (Badass Studios), Ben Spencer (Aurora Media Worldwide), and John Murphy (BBC Sport). The session will explore how augmented reality is being used to support editorial understanding and analytical insight without compromising pace or credibility.

‍

The SVG Europe Sports Graphics Forum 2026 brings together leading figures from across sport, broadcast, and technology to share insight, experience, and expertise on the future of live graphics and visual storytelling.
