Veloce Media Group: Industry demand for next-generation gaming connectivity

Esports leaders are calling on mobile operators to enable ultra-low-latency, high-performance connectivity for competitive gaming and live streaming.

About enterprise API demands

Across esports, gaming, and live streaming, demand for high-performance, mobile-first experiences is accelerating rapidly. With over 550 million global viewers and a multi-billion-dollar ecosystem, esports is evolving beyond traditional arenas into fully connected, on-the-go experiences.

Veloce Media Group, a global leader in esports and gaming innovation, is calling on mobile operators to unlock this next phase by enabling programmable network capabilities through Open Gateway APIs. A live demonstration at MWC Doha 2025 proved what’s possible running a real-time esports competition on a public 5G Standalone network with ultra-low latency, high throughput, and stable performance.

However, scaling this globally requires more than best-effort connectivity. Competitive gaming and live streaming demand predictable, prioritised, and programmable network performance. By leveraging GSMA Open Gateway and CAMARA Quality on Demand APIs, operators can deliver the consistency required for mobile esports at scale. The message is clear: connectivity is now a competitive technology. Through collaboration, the mobile ecosystem can power a new era of immersive, mobile-first entertainment.

Problem

A red outline of a padlock is centered within a circle, surrounded by eight connected nodes, symbolizing online security, protection, or network safety on a light gray background.

Mobile networks cannot consistently deliver the ultra-low latency, stability, and prioritisation required for competitive esports and high-quality live streaming.

Solution

A red line drawing of a lightbulb with circuit-like lines inside, symbolizing technology or innovation. Two sparkles appear on either side of the bulb, and short lines radiate from its top, suggesting brightness or creativity. The background is light gray.

Programmable network APIs enable guaranteed performance, dynamic prioritisation, and multi-channel optimisation for gaming and streaming workloads.

API service
