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.

THIS FREE 2-HOUR EVENT WILL: ✔ 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

WHO SHOULD ATTEND •Business owners and executives •Hotel and hospitality administrators •Restaurant and bar operators •Retail and sales managers •Security and operations personnel •Chamber and community leaders
