Glasgow 2026 finds new AI partner in Ideagen
Software company Ideagen has been announced as the Official AI Technology Principal Partner of the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, Presenting Partner for Netball, and an Official Partner of Team Scotland.
Ideagen will thus enjoy branding exposure across the Netball programme, thereby engaging markets where the sport has prominence.
The 2026 Commonwealth Games are scheduled to take place between July 23 and August 2, 2026, in Glasgow, Scotland.
Martin Fitchie, Chief Information Officer, Glasgow 2026, commented:
“Leaders in both sport and technology strive for precision, reliability and continuous excellence. Ideagen recognises this deeply. Their technology underpins some of the world’s most vital operations and their dedication to zero failure aligns perfectly with the high standards of elite sports. This is a partnership founded on common values and we are proud to welcome Ideagen as a Principal Partner. We look forward to collaborating and showcasing how innovation and athletic performance go hand in hand at Glasgow 2026.”
Ben Dorks, Chief Executive Officer at Ideagen, said:
“Glasgow 2026 is where the world’s best will come to prove that performance is everything – and that’s exactly what makes this partnership so exciting, because that’s precisely what our technology is built for. Standards matter and failure isn’t an option, whether you’re competing for a medal or keeping the world’s most critical industries safe. For us, it’s also about our people – Ideagen has offices, colleagues and customers in many of the nations competing this summer – not just the home nations but also Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Barbados, Cyprus, India, Malaysia and South Africa so this partnership made a lot of sense for us on so many levels. As Official AI Technology Partner of Glasgow 2026 and Presenting Partner of the Netball programme, we can’t wait to be part of it.”
Jon Doig OBE, Chief Executive at Team Scotland, added:
“We are delighted to welcome Ideagen as a Principal Partner of Glasgow 2026 and Team Scotland. Having the support of a company that has global Commonwealth connections is a tremendous asset and will only add to the impact that the Games will have this summer and beyond.”
