Fellow notable Nashville customers include
Nissan Stadium, Bridgestone Arena, Nashville Soccer Club and Opry
Entertainment Group
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leading security technology
company pioneering AI-based screening to create safer experiences,
today announced its partnership with Belmont University. Located in
Nashville, Tennessee, the university began using Evolv Express® for
weapons detection at its Curb Event Center Arena late last
year.
Evolv Express uses sensor technology combined with artificial
intelligence to differentiate between threats and the kinds of
common metal objects people carry. The multipurpose arena, which
can accommodate 5,000 seated guests, uses Express systems to screen
guests attending basketball and volleyball games, concerts and
other activities.
The arena joins a growing list of performing arts, sports and
entertainment venues in Music City that use Express to enhance
safety and elevate the guest experience. The Tennessee Titans have
used Express for the past three seasons, while neighboring
Bridgestone Arena became the first professional hockey Evolv
partner more than a year ago. Opry Entertainment Group experienced
the benefits of Express when the system was deployed at the iconic
Grande Ole Opry.
“Venue management professionals are a tight-knit community, and
we share what works and what doesn’t with one another,” said Andrea
Runner, senior director of business operations and special projects
at Belmont University. “There’s a buzz about Evolv across the city,
and as Nashvillians, we’ve experienced Evolv first-hand at a number
of venues locally. We needed our weapons detection partner to be on
par with the university in terms of being innovative while also
providing a seamless customer experience, and Express fits the
bill.”
While Belmont is the first university in the state – and city of
Nashville – to use Express, many school districts in Tennessee
partner with Evolv. Nationally, the company’s solutions are in more
than 800 school buildings and screen roughly 600,000 students
daily.
“Nashville is an example of a city – similar to a number of
other major metros like Boston, Denver and Houston – where Evolv is
now an expectation because it’s used so widely,” said Jay
Muelhoefer, chief commercial officer for Evolv Technology. “Belmont
is an exemplary educational institution, and now, it’s leading the
way for other centers of higher education in using the best
available technology to protect students, faculty, staff and other
guests.”
