Madrid, 26 May 2025 – The Organizing Committee of the Rhine-Ruhr 2025 FISU World University Games has announced another significant partnership: Bornan Sports Technology has been named the official provider of the Games Management System (GMS), delivering the digital infrastructure essential for the efficient execution of the event. Bornan Sports Technology specializes in digital solutions for major sporting events, has proven experience in numerous international sports projects, and offers comprehensive systems tailored to the complex demands of multi-sport events.
As part of the Rhine-Ruhr 2025 FISU World University Games, Bornan will provide the central Games Management System (GMS) – a digital backbone deployed across multiple departments, consolidating a wide range of tasks. Among other things, the system will be used to manage more than 10,000 volunteers.
Nine Modules for Smooth Technical Operations
A central module is participant registration: all accredited individuals – from athletes to officials – will complete a centralized online form, which will then be verified by the respective department. Sports registrations will also be processed via the GMS: delegations register their athletes for sports and disciplines, subject to approval by the responsible sport entries team.
To ensure security, the GMS includes an integrated access control system with scanning functionality – all accreditation badges will be equipped with QR codes that can be verified on-site. Furthermore, the system supports the coordination of arrivals and departures by allowing participants to enter their travel data, enabling the transport team to plan accordingly. Finally, the system also manages catering logistics: access to dining areas and meal entitlements are organized through the platform.
Eva Maria Cordoba Garcia, CEO & Founder of Bornan is excited about the collaboration: “We are really glad to cooperate with the Rhine-Ruhr 2025 Committee. It reflects exactly what we strive for in every project, delivering not only a robust and adaptable technology platform, but also providing dedicated expert support to ensure the system is used to its fullest potential. We sincerely appreciate the trust placed in our team and are excited to continue building an innovative, efficient, and memorable event together.”
Rebecca Walker, Manager Games Management System at Rhine-Ruhr 2025 FISU Games adds: “The collaboration with Bornan not only gives us access to a powerful technology platform but also the support of an experienced expert team that guides us in making the best use of the system.”
