“This dual focus is what sets Evolv apart from other solutions. We have days when multiple and concurrent shows take place. Previously, these days were a heavy lift for the team. But with Evolv, this is no longer the case. We’re no longer known as the ‘bad guys.’”

"Evolv is a local company and is well-known in the industry. We decided to take a look at Evolv, and we discovered that their platform delivers a tremendous guest experience, while maintaining a great security posture.”

“We have a variety of fans and patrons who come into the arena. When they come to the arena, they expect to have fun and do not want to wait in lines to get into the building, whether it’s families or season ticket holders for the Predators. At the same …

"Our layers of security all contribute to safe learning and athletic environments. For example, we require and check IDs for all students in addition to having them pass through the Express lane.”

“When guests come to Hollywood Park, and more specifically SoFi Stadium or YouTube Theater, they expect a smooth experience—whether it is parking, coming through the entrance, or the actual event they came to see. Guests set a very high bar when it comes to experience, and they expect us to …

"Leading-edge technology is at the core of what we’re doing here. We’re at the forefront of digital transformation at Hollywood Park, seeking to deliver unrivaled experiences to guests. This includes ingress at our various entrances.”

"Working with Evolv has been great—everything from how the Express system works, to educating us on Cortex AI®, to getting our team scheduled for online training, to resolving tech support issues the few times they have arisen.”

“We were in the security ingress area when the National Anthem played. Normally with manual screening, we would still have lines of fans trying to get into the park. But when I looked up after the National Anthem was finished, there were no lines. I knew then that we had …

“We had lines of people who showed up before we opened our gates. I overheard one person telling her friends, ‘We’re never going to get our seats. Even if they open up right now, we’re still not going to make it.’ The gates opened and the lines started to move. …

“Patrons have a choice and if they perceive that the hassle and intrusiveness of the security process is too great, they may choose not to attend a performance.”

“We open our gates 60 minutes before most matches and events. We might open 90 minutes ahead of a few special events. That said, the reality is the majority of fans and guests arrive in the last 15 minutes. We get maybe 15% to 25% of them in the first …

“There was genuine excitement from staff and students reached out to show their gratitude for the decision."

"Our teachers and staff were very happy when we put Evolv in our schools. They know we’re now checking everyone who enters a school, and they feel our campuses are much safer. This enables our teachers to focus on teaching rather than worrying about potential threats coming onto the campuses.”

"9/11 and the Boston Marathon bombing certainly shape how we run quality athletic events. Yet, at the same time, we also are in a constant endeavor to improve our home experience. Our objective is for people to come and watch athletic events in person.”

“Evolv Edge is the only personnel inspection system that looks for both metallic and non-metallic threats, is mobile and has a high throughput rate for employees that do not have to divest.”
