Pop-up venues
A new street circuit every other weekend. The portal must look and behave identically in São Paulo, Berlin and Tokyo, even when the underlying VLANs, AP firmware and uplink providers differ city by city.
Netgraph delivers the guest-access captive portal for the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, across press centres, VIP and hospitality areas at 17 races on 4 continents. In cooperation with Tata Communications and TPO.
Formula E doesn't race at one stadium. It races wherever the city lets it. Each round means a temporary network on temporary infrastructure, serving an audience that ranges from FIA officials to fans buying their first ticket.
A new street circuit every other weekend. The portal must look and behave identically in São Paulo, Berlin and Tokyo, even when the underlying VLANs, AP firmware and uplink providers differ city by city.
Press centres need quick credentialed sign-in. VIP and hospitality guests need a frictionless branded flow. Experience-centre visitors need short-lived day passes. Same SSID stack, three policies, zero confusion.
Every email captured at the hospitality portal is GDPR-compliant by design: verifiable opt-in, double-confirmation, and an audit trail that Formula E can hand to regulators on demand.
The Sign In module presents a Formula E-branded splash on the hospitality SSID: same fonts, same imagery, same email-opt-in flow whether the guest is in Tokyo or São Paulo. Hosts in the back-office swap the artwork and translate the consent copy per region, and the underlying policy stays untouched.
Operators at TPO and Formula E watch a single console. Devices online, login velocity, verified-email totals, active policies and traffic shaping are visible in real time, across whichever city the championship is currently in.
