NEP Europe, part of NEP Group, the leading media services provider for sports and entertainment worldwide, today announced the successful delivery of broadcast services for The Championships, Wimbledon 2026, alongside a new multi-year agreement with Wimbledon Broadcast Services (WBS) as a broadcast services provider.

Under the agreement, NEP will continue as the broadcast technical services provider for future Championships, extending its longstanding relationship with WBS. Together, the organizations continue to evolve the host broadcast operation through expanded IP-based production, streamlined workflows and enhanced orchestration with NEP's TFC broadcast control system.

"What makes this relationship successful is a shared commitment to continually improving how The Championships is delivered. Working alongside WBS, we've evolved the host broadcast operation by finding smarter ways to work, embracing new technologies and giving both teams greater flexibility to innovate. This new agreement reflects the trust we've built together and, most importantly, the commitment of our people who continue to push the operation forward every year."
