📋 Tender Overview
Rostelecom supported the grand final of the International Street Culture and Sports Award "Cardo" in Stavropol. The national provider organized wired and wireless Internet access at all festival sites. The total traffic amounted to about one terabyte of information, which is comparable to 20 thousand short videos.
The seventh season of the award took place from August 22 to 25. The grand final was attended by 2,500 people from 47 countries. Over the course of four days, the jury summed up the results in 11 areas of street culture: workout, parkour, freerunning, hip-hop, breaking and others.
Roman Zavyazkin, Director of the Stavropol branch of PJSC Rostelecom:
"Cardo and Rostelecom have been developing partnership relations for many years. We are connected not only by tens of kilometers of fiber-optic communication lines and Wi-Fi access points, but also by a high level of professionalism. Seven years ago, we saw the creative potential and uniqueness of the Cardo project, and today we proudly note its growth and development together with the team of organizers. Every year, digital technologies continue to develop and the need for their use in such projects is becoming increasingly relevant. This year, Rostelecom specialists carried out round-the-clock monitoring of the operability of communication networks to reliably provide Internet access, conduct online broadcasts of competitions and the opening and closing ceremonies of the award."
This year, Cardo and Rostelecom continued their creative collaboration to paint telecommunications equipment installed on the streets of Stavropol. Street art on the theme: "City Streets: From the Present to the Digital Future" was created by the festival's artists. Unique paintings appeared on telecom facilities in the city center, southwestern and northwestern districts.
During the closing ceremony of "Cardo", the winners of the award for contribution to the development of the street culture and sports industry, as well as the winners of the video competition were announced. During the grand final, thematic sites were open: a street registry office, master classes in hip-hop, parkour and graffiti, the "Cardo" driving school and other locations.
General Director of the International Street Culture and Sports Competition and Prize "CARDO" Valentin Rabotenko:
"The Award for Contribution to the Development of Street Culture and Sports is one of the project's competitions aimed at recognizing and rewarding the best communities and organizations that have made the greatest contribution to the development of a specific area of ??street culture and sports over the past year. The award competition is designed not only to celebrate the achievements of athletes, but also to encourage them on their way to new heights. Our digital partner Rostelecom helped us stay in touch, share emotions online, and conduct online broadcasts of events that were attended by 48 thousand people. Much respect for the quality of communication and fast customer support."
