The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) has announced a new partnership with security technology firm, Evolv Technology. The first-of-its-kind partnership will see Evolv deploy their Evolv Express, a detection screening system which will be used to screen fans at entry gates.
Rey Sumaru, general manager of IT & innovation for the Melbourne Cricket Club, commented,
“We were looking for a more efficient entry experience for guests coming to the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The technology from Evolv has provided us with a more streamlined entry experience – helping minimise time spent in queues lines for fans, while still providing the safest environment possible.”
Nick Robertson, general manager, Convergint Australia, said,
“There’s usually a large number of fans approaching the gates at the same time, about 15-to-30 minutes before an event. There’s really only one solution that can handle that amount of people in such a short time, and that’s Express.”
Peter George, CEO of Evolv Technology, added,
“Evolv is creating a safer world for people to work, learn, and play, and the work we have done alongside Convergint to bring Evolv to a new country – a new continent! – helps us reach even more people worldwide.”
