Protecting the Safety & Security of Your Business During the World Cup: Prevention, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery


Major international sporting events, like the upcoming World Cup in Kansas City, bring thousands of visitors which increases a business’s revenue as well as risk. From crowd surges and alcohol fueled incidents like theft and assaults, a business can suffer monetary loss, heavy liabilities, reputational damage, and potential closure. Unlike stadiums, most businesses lack dedicated safety and security teams or resources and are open all day.

  • Identify real-world threats from global sporting events 
  • Recognize vulnerabilities in your business operations 
  • Implement practical prevention strategies 
  • Manage and de-escalate incidents in real time 
  • Conduct rapid on-site risk assessments tailored to your specific location and crowd profile 
  • Reduce liability and protect your staff and customers 
  • Recover quickly and protect your brand after an incident
