Case Study: Eurovision Song Contest achieves smooth project coordination for Malmö 2013 with Planview ProjectPlace

ESC 2013 brings participants together in Projectplace

The Eurovision Song Contest, organizing the 58th edition in Malmö 2013 with 39 participating countries, needed to centralize communication, scheduling and file‑sharing across a large, distributed team. To meet this challenge they selected Planview ProjectPlace (Projectplace) as a shared platform to collect information, coordinate work and avoid bottlenecks.

Planview ProjectPlace provided virtual project rooms and interactive kanban-style boards used daily to visualize tasks, responsibilities and progress, making documents and status visible to everyone with access. As a result, Eurovision Song Contest reported smoother project execution, faster coordination across teams and reduced information bottlenecks, helping ensure work on Malmö 2013 ran smoothly.
