Through the use of virtual environments, such as festivals, stadia, shopping malls and transport hubs, we are able to simulate every facet of a live show, event or crowded public space - from the front line to the event control centre. This approach enables the development and testing of plans, and opportunities to explore the leadership, teamwork, communication and decision-making capabilities of event professionals.
Crowd safety management is a diverse realm that includes activities such as planning, site and event design, management of staff and the public, site operations, risk management, monitoring, communications and more.
Crowded places range from large-scale entertainment venues such as festivals and stadia to urban locations, including transport hubs and retail sites. The events sector alone is worth £42 billion to the UK economy, supporting more than half a million jobs, and millions of people pass through UK crowded spaces every day.
