Sports and athletic venues present unique security challenges. Large crowds, high visibility, evolving threat landscapes and heightened public expectations demand a proactive, layered approach to physical security.
Presented by well know security expert Pierre Bourgeix MS, MBA, CPP, CEO, ESI Convergent, this webinar will explore the critical role of access control and perimeter security in protecting stadiums, arenas and athletic facilities. From outer perimeter planning and vehicle mitigation strategies to credentialing, screening and integrated surveillance, Bourgeix will examine how security leaders can design systems that deter threats while maintaining a positive guest experience.
Attendees will gain insight into how converged security strategies — integrating physical security, operational technology and cybersecurity considerations — strengthen resilience across venue operations. The discussion will highlight practical approaches to governance, risk assessment and predictive analytics that support smarter decision-making before, during and after events.
Whether managing a professional stadium, collegiate athletic complex or multi-use event venue, security professionals will leave with a clearer understanding of how layered perimeter protection and modern access control strategies form the foundation of a secure facility.
