The 16th Annual National Sports Safety and Security Conference & Exhibition, hosted by the National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS⁴), brings together industry leaders from June 30th to July 2nd at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa. We’re excited to announce that representatives from ECAM and BEST Crowd Management and Event Security, two specialized divisions within the GardaWorld family of companies, will be attending together this year and demonstrating our comprehensive commitment to sports and entertainment security.
A Strategic Partnership in Action
ECAM’s participation in NCS⁴ alongside BEST Crowd Management highlights more than just a corporate presence—it reflects our powerful, integrated approach to safety and security in the sports and entertainment industry. ECAM brings rapidly deployable, flexible remote monitoring and surveillance solutions, while BEST Crowd Management offers hands-on knowledge in crowd control, flow coordination, and spectator safety. Together, they provide event organizers and venue operators with a comprehensive security strategy that balances proactive crowd management with robust emergency preparedness.
Remote video monitoring allows trained security professionals to watch live camera feeds in real-time, with the aid of AI-powered analytics. This enables early detection of suspicious behavior, like unauthorized access, crowd surges, or unattended bags—before they escalate into serious incidents.
This year’s conference theme, “elevating industry standards through collaboration and proven practices,” perfectly mirrors the strengths of both companies.
