MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Today, Comcast Business announced an agreement with the National Basketball Association’s Memphis Grizzlies to provide a three-gigabit fiber connection at FedExForum.

Comcast Business will furnish the back-end infrastructure to support a host of emerging technology applications that add to the experience of attending games and events at the arena, including complimentary Wi-Fi access. Comcast Business will also supply internet service and advanced cloud-based communications services for the team’s front office.

“Through our new agreement with Comcast Business, fans will soon be able to enjoy our games in more innovative ways,” said John Walker, Executive Vice President of Business Operations, Memphis Grizzlies. “This positions FedExForum as a technologically advanced arena and will dramatically improve the overall fan experience.”

“We are proud of our partnership with the Grizzlies and FedExForum to deliver gigabit powered internet connectivity, and to support the communication needs of those who work at and visit the arena,” said Larry Williamson, Area Vice President at Comcast.

In 2016, Comcast Business completed a multi-million-dollar network investment across greater Memphis, capable of delivering up to 10-gigabit speeds to local businesses. This investment helps organizations such as the Grizzlies offer reliable services and innovative products to meet the technology demands of their customers.
