Espoo, Finland – Nokia and Digita today announced that they are expanding their partnership with CoreGo, a company specializing in payment and access control solutions for events, to provide secure and reliable data transmission for large Finnish and international events. This collaboration has enabled multiple deployments in the last two years, benefited sports and festival organizers with reliable connectivity, and significantly improved the customer experience of over 2 million event attendees in Europe.
The CoreGo POS combined with Nokia Digital Automation Cloud (DAC)’s private wireless network enables event organizers to easily utilize and move the private network as needed to enable seamless management of onsite payments in venues. Deployed by Digita, the private 5G network ensures real-time, uninterrupted data transfer for critical event systems such as inventory management, payment terminals, access control, and ticket validation that meet the requirements of modern businesses and dynamic environments. The solution ensures reliability, security, and scalability to meet the needs of large events.
Private networks have proven to be a crucial technology for large public events where real-time and uninterrupted data transfer is critical. They support the success of events by enabling efficient electronic ticket sales and verification, reliable payment transactions, smooth use of digital signage, and secure access control. Additionally, private networks enable advanced real-time data analytics, interactive fan engagement, critical staff communications, and geo-location-based services that further enhance the overall experience for guests.
“Our goal is to improve the customer experience and support the organization and event workers in the best possible way by enabling real-time situational awareness. Delivered through our long-term partners, Nokia and Digita, the private wireless solution enabled a first-class service experience, with access control and payment playing a crucial role,” said Hannu Elomaa, CEO and Founder at CoreGo.
“We are proud that CoreGo chose us as their partner to implement critical event networks in Finland and internationally. This agreement strengthens our expertise in delivering high-quality, scalable, and reliable network solutions, supporting our strategy to expand into the Nordics. The Nokia technology ensures that event data transfer works reliably and efficiently,” said Pekka Koskinen, Head of Sales, Private Networks at Digita.
“Private 5G networks deployed with powerful edge cloud processing capabilities are transforming the event industry. Event visitors now have secure access to well-connected services from the moment they purchase their ticket to when they depart the venue. We have successfully collaborated with Digita and CoreGo on multiple projects, and it is great to see that private 5G technology proves its capability in securing reliable data transmission at large events,” said Michael Aspinall, Head of Sales, Enterprise Campus Edge, Europe at Nokia
