Sarasota County Agricultural Fair Association Deploys Evolv Technology in the Aftermath of a Shooting

The Sarasota Agricultural Fair Association welcomes more than 140,000 visitors each year during its annual 10-day spring fair. After shots were fired on March 20th, 2021, Evolv Technology wanted to help. We deployed our Evolv Express® weapons detection screening on-site for the duration of the event, and with enabling Evolv Express, the fair to achieve the following:

• Helped to scan all visitors entering Roberts Arena for weapons
• Helped to reduce long security queues resulting from manual security procedures
• Helped to rebuild the fair’s brand by delivering safety through touchless security scanning experience
