It was an inspiring conversation with Pascal Wattiaux.

He shares such thoughtful insights on what it really takes to organize the Olympic Games across different countries — the challenges, the collaboration, and the magic that brings it all together.

Stay tuned to see the rest of the interviews in the Olympics series!

Notre premier entretien pour le documentaire sur les JO de Paris pour l'Inde est dans la boîte.

Et on n’aurait pas pu rêver mieux pour démarrer.

Pascal Wattiaux de chez PW Sport.

Il est présents dans les télécoms sportives depuis les années 90.
Des Jeux Olympiques, des coupes du monde de la FIFA, il en a vu passer. Et documenter. Et actif sur le terrain.

Pendant une heure, il nous a parlé de spectre radio, de coordination des fréquences, de dispositifs logistiques à plusieurs millions, avec toutes les contraintes que ça répresente…

Mais surtout, il nous a parlé simplement.
De tout le défi que sont les JO.
Qu'il faut planifier à l'avance tout et tenir la date.

Pas de report.
Pas de second chance.

Juste un passionné qui raconte ce qu’il sait.

Parce que les JO de Paris 2024, ce n’est pas juste un événement.
C’est une opération à cœur ouvert dans un monde ultra-connecté.

Et il a su nous en montrer les coulisses.
Pour nous aider.
Pour aider l'Inde à gagner l'appel des JO de 2036.

C’était la première interview d’une longue série.
On prépare un documentaire pour novembre.
Et je sens que ce projet va me transformer.
Moi qui a vibré en suivant l'escrime français.
Moi qui a pleuré à cause de Steph Curry.
Ca m'apporte un nouveau regard, 
Un regard de défis technique et ça me parle beaucoup !

Merci de tout cœur à Pascal pour sa générosité.
Merci à Djélina Mboungou pour la mise en relation.
Merci à Raghav Agarwal & Ijee Mohanty pour avoir mené l'interview.
Merci à Jérémie Guibert, Alexis Hamel pour leur soutien à l'organisation de cet interview.
Merci aux 17 membres de la FIYT 25 de la Chambre de Commerce et d'Industrie Franco Indienne à mes côtés, c'est un travail de groupe avant tout !
Et merci à vous tous, qui avez commenté, partagé et liké en masse mon post précédent : plus de 30 contacts en quelques jours.
On avance. Ensemble.

La suite arrive.
Mais ce que je peux déjà dire, c’est que j’apprends à chaque échange et j'ai hâte des prochains interviews !
Et on vous dévoilera tout en Novembre 😃
