VOKKERO

What VOKKERO does

VOKKERO is the audio-communication product brand of VOGO, a privately held French technology company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Montpellier with additional offices in Paris, Grenoble, New York (Tuckahoe) and Frome (UK). The company designs and sells proprietary full-duplex wireless audio intercom and walkie-talkie systems for use in high-noise professional environments where reliability and clarity are operationally critical. Its core technology combines proprietary radio and audio processing hardware (the VOKKERO ELITE, STAFF, UNITY, GUARDIAN, GUARDIAN PLUS, COMPAK, SHOW and STAGE lines) with hearing-protection compatibility and, on certain industrial SKUs, reinforced encryption.

VOGO extends the same platform into video with the VOGOSPORT, VOGOSCOPE and VOGOLIVE product lines, providing Video Assistant Referee (VAR) and Television Match Official (TMO) systems, replay tools for medical and coaching staff, and spectator-facing second-screen and live-streaming products. Combined offerings are sold as the VOGO ELITE BUNDLE and VOGO STAFF BUNDLE, integrating audio and video into single procurement ecosystems. The underlying architecture is modular hardware devices paired with proprietary wireless protocols designed for real-time, low-latency operation in stadiums, industrial sites and live-event venues.

VOKKERO/VOGO monetises primarily through hardware sales of audio devices and accessories, supplemented by one-time licences for video/VAR systems, with combined bundles sold on multi-year enterprise contracts. Go-to-market is a hybrid of direct enterprise sales — through offices in France, the US and UK — and a global network of more than 50 distributors and resellers. The customer base is concentrated in four verticals: professional sports federations, leagues and teams; semi-professional and amateur sports; industrial sectors including construction (BTP), energy, railway and noisy manufacturing; and professional audiovisual production and live events. FY2025 revenue is reported at €11.2M with 5% year-over-year growth.

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Shure: Global pro-audio incumbent with wireless microphone, in-ear monitor, and conferencing systems used in sports, broadcast, and AV; broader catalog and channel but increasingly adjacent to VOKKERO's wireless comms niche.
• Hytera: Global two-way radio and professional communications vendor with strong presence in industrial, public-safety, and transportation verticals — adjacent technology and customer set to VOKKERO GUARDIAN industrial field comms.
• Bose Professional: Professional audio business of Bose serving stadiums, venues, and conferencing spaces; broader installed-sound focus but expanding wireless comms capabilities overlap with VOKKERO's sports venue deployments.
• Sennheiser (professional division): Heritage German pro-audio brand with wireless microphones, headphones, and conference systems serving broadcast, sports, and corporate markets — overlapping customer base but broader portfolio than VOKKERO.

Direct peers

• Hawk-Eye Innovations (Sony): Sports technology provider of VAR, goal-line, and officiating systems for football, tennis, and other sports; directly competes with VOGOSPORT ELITE in the professional sports arbitration market.
• Riedel Communications: German specialist in professional wireless intercom and broadcast network infrastructure serving sports venues, broadcasters, and live events — the most direct global competitor to VOKKERO's referee and audiovisual communications line.
• RTS Intercom Systems (Bosch): Bosch-owned broadcast intercom brand offering wireless party-line and matrix intercoms widely deployed in sports broadcasting and live production — directly comparable to VOKKERO's broadcaster and audiovisual venue use cases.
• Clear-Com (HME): US-based provider of professional wireless intercom systems for broadcast, sports, and live event production; competes head-to-head with VOKKERO SHOW/STAGE for technical-crew communications and in referee comms deployments.

Emerging players

• Williams Sound: US provider of wireless communication, hearing assistance, and tour-guide systems; smaller and more assistive-listening focused, but overlapping technology and industrial/government customer set with VOKKERO.
• Hollyland: Shenzhen-based maker of wireless intercom, video, and microphone systems for film, broadcast, and live event creators — emerging direct competitor in entry-level pro wireless comms pricing tier relevant to VOKKERO's amateur sport and AV line.
