Artificial Intelligence-Powered Solution to
screen fans at Citizens Bank Park beginning Opening Day 2023
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leader in AI-based weapons
detection security screening, today announced its partnership with
the defending National League champion Philadelphia Phillies.
Citizens Bank Park will feature Evolv’s state-of-the-art Evolv
Express® screening solution beginning with the Phillies’ home
opener on April 7, when they host the Cincinnati Reds. Fans will be
able to walk through the entrance gates without always having to
stop to open bags or be checked individually as they enter the
ballpark.
“Philadelphia fans are so passionate about their teams – we want
that energy in the ballpark, not lined up outside,” said Sal
DeAngelis, vice president of operations and security for the
Phillies. “Evolv helps to get everyone in quickly and safely, and
from a security standpoint they are great to work with and help us
do our job better.”
Evolv Express uses powerful sensor technology with artificial
intelligence (AI) to provide safer, more accurate threat detection
at unprecedented volume and speed. It allows security officials to
tell the difference between threats and everyday items people carry
in their pockets and bags. Citizens Bank Park is the third
Philadelphia pro sports venue to implement Evolv.
“This is an exciting time for Evolv to partner with the
Phillies,” said John Baier, Evolv’s vice president of sports. “Fans
saw their team go to the World Series last year, and they look to
continue that momentum on and off the field from the moment they
arrive. With Evolv’s technology in the fold for 2023, fans can
expect that same winning experience at the entrances as they get to
the ballpark to see their Phillies play.”
Evolv is used at a growing number of facilities in all sports,
including NFL stadiums like SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and
Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, as well as Major League
Baseball’s Fenway Park in Boston and Citi Field in New York.
