Workforce Optimization for Service Delivery

Large-scale events require integrated security and emergency management to protect attendees and maintain critical services. This panel examines responsible drone use for surveillance and response at FIFA matches and EDM festivals. We will discuss strategies to safeguard event connectivity and resilient communications under strain. Experts will address mass-shooting risk mitigation, on-site medical and policing coordination, and lessons from recent incidents. Finally, we’ll explore how weather-aware technologies can be integrated into real-time safety decision-making.
