Radio France deploys technical infrastructure for Paris Olympics


 
Radio France has put its enhanced technical infrastructure to work covering the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, says the broadcaster’s Technical and Information Systems Department. In 2021, the French national public radio network, the country’s official radio for the Summer Games, initiated the ongoing migration to IP of its audio and video streams with Broadcasting Center Europe and Paris Olympics digital infrastructure provider Orange Business. 

For the Summer Games, Radio France has two studios at Club France — a designated area set up as a meeting place for French athletes, media, and supporters — in Parc de La Villette — one of the largest parks in Paris — to cover the celebrations and French medal wins. The coverage team, including on-air talent and editors, will broadcast from 10 a.m. to midnight. The setup includes a dedicated studio for the 24-hour news network franceinfo and a shared studio for sister stations France Inter, Mouv’ and France Bleu.
