Evolv Technology, a security technology company pioneering AI-based solutions designed to help create safer experiences, announces that its Evolv Express system has been recently deployed at Target Centre, home of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Minnesota Lynx professional basketball teams.
Evolv is the Preferred Patron Screening Provider of Target Centre, a multi-use arena in downtown Minneapolis. Upon deployment, the Express system was immediately put to the test as it was used to screen record-setting crowds during the WNBA Finals. The nine Express systems will be used for all Timberwolves and Lynx home games and other concerts, shows, family and private events at the arena.
Security screening tray
“We’re very excited to introduce Evolv Express to our guests who enter the Target Centre,” said David Feeley, General Manager Target Centre, ASM Global. “With our old system, guests had to divest everything into the security screening tray, now with Evolv they don’t, and it helps to increase the speed our guests enter the building while still enabling us to prioritise safety.”
“Evolv is proud of its official partnership with Target Centre,” said John Baier, Evolv Vice President of Sports. “It’s gratifying to know that Express helps deliver a world-class fan experience for NBA and WNBA fans and all the others that enjoy events at Target Centre.”
