BBC Director of Sport Roger Molsey said: "We are deeply proud of historic ties with Wimbledon, but this is focused on state-of-the-art digital services,"
"We're determined to make the event an even bigger part of our national sporting life through the use of new technology and working with the club to innovate across digital platforms,"
An example of the innovation is bringing Wimbledon to the BBC iPlayer. Extensive coverage of the event which was previously available to digital viewers via the red button will also now be available online.
Chief executive of the All England Club Ian Ritchie said: "Like the BBC, we are always looking to bring The Championships to a wider audience at the same time as improving the overall quality of the coverage.
"Through the latest digital technology Wimbledon fans can choose to stay in touch with all the drama and action in a way that suits them best.
