BlueJeans empowers fast and easy face-to-face communications, using state of the art video conferencing solutions to help bring people closer together for more effective collaboration. The platform combines high-quality audio, HD video and web-conferencing capabilities for cloud-based meetings and large-scale interactive events.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the desire to stay virtually connected to sports fans was quickly recognised and used by rights holders globally. Brentford FC worked tirelessly to keep our fans engaged across our digital channels and through supporter outreach initiatives—something Brentford FC are keen to continue building on as their fan base rapidly grows.

Football fans across the globe will now see the BlueJeans brand at the stadium, but more importantly current and new Brentford fans will be able to enjoy custom Brentford FC programming on the BlueJeans Events platform, providing fans an exciting and refreshing digital experience.

To maximize engagement in today’s hyper-connected world, BlueJeans Events leads the virtual event industry with multi-language support and up to 150,000 interactive event participants. Fans can participate in Q&A, chat, and polling, and raise their hand to be promoted onto the virtual stage. With Events, BlueJeans is making livestreaming inclusive and accessible for fans everywhere.
