The Council of Ministers has given the green light to official support for Spain's bid to host the 2035 FIFA World Cup. The decision aims to strengthen the country's international positioning as a host of major events, coordinating institutions and guaranteeing the necessary infrastructure for the sporting event.
5G technology and smart stadiums will be key to the bid 📡
The Spanish bid plans to integrate 5G networks in stadiums to offer an advanced digital experience for fans. It includes the use of IoT sensors for crowd flow management and access control, as well as AI-powered video surveillance systems for security. Connectivity and energy efficiency will be the technical pillars of the proposal, aiming to make each venue a real-time data node.
The 2035 World Cup is won with 5G passes, not goal passes ⚽
While FIFA demands perfect grass, the Government is already thinking about the fiber optics on the pitch. Because, let's be honest, the important thing is not whether the national team reaches the quarterfinals, but that the VAR doesn't freeze and that streamers can go live from the stands without interruptions. Sure, if we don't end up getting it, at least we'll have stadiums with wifi faster than my neighbor downloading series.
