After the success in Birmingham USA in 2022, Sword Group and the International World Games Association have renewed their partnership for the 12th edition of The World Games in Chengdu, People’s Republic of China in 2025.
Sword Group has been selected by IWGA for the provision of Sword Venue, as their primary venue tool to improve collaboration and organization of this multi-sports event.
Our objective is to provide the very best experience to our athletes and visitors. With our partner Sword Venue, we will again provide an advanced technology to our partners. The platform is used as our primary venue planning tool which enables us to work collaboratively with the international federations and Chengdu to deliver more economically and ecologically sustainable Games by reducing the number of necessary site visits,” says Sebastian Garvens, IWGA Sports Director.
Sword Venue carries out its work globally, from its headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, and its regional offices in more than 20 countries. Sword Venue offers a white-labelled SaaS collaborative platform for event planning. Main modules include event design, inventory management and human resources planning in the context of major events.
“After the success of TWG 2022 in Birmingham USA, IWGA renews its confidence in us. This is confirmation that Sword Venue is the game changer in the way of rethinking the design process of maps & plans for all events. Being part of The World Games in Chengdu in 2025 is a challenge for us to provide again a first-class service” says Eric Barreau, product director of Sword Venue.
