Evolv Technology renews partnership with Philadelphia Phillies
Evolv Technologies Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV) announced a multi-year renewal of its security screening partnership with the Philadelphia Phillies, extending the use of Evolv Express systems at Citizens Bank Park.
The renewal includes an upgrade to Gen2 hardware throughout the ballpark, which adds enhanced mobility and improved camera resolution. Evolv Express has screened nearly 12 million guests since implementation began at the start of the 2023 season.
The agreement maintains Evolv's designation as the "Preferred Fan Screening Partner of the Philadelphia Phillies," providing brand presence inside the ballpark and promotional opportunities using team trademarks.
"Thanks to Evolv, our fans have come to expect a fast, seamless entry experience when attending games at Citizens Bank Park," said Salvatore DeAngelis, Vice President of Operations & Security. "We're excited to continue our successful partnership, and this renewal ensures we can maintain that high standard for years to come."
The Phillies represent part of what Evolv describes as a trend among professional sports customers reaching the end of initial subscription terms. Philadelphia is one of five markets where Evolv serves all major professional sports venues.
Evolv operates security screening systems at almost 100 sports and entertainment venues worldwide and maintains more than 50 official partner designations. The company also serves schools, healthcare facilities, and entertainment venues in the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
The renewal comes as Citizens Bank Park prepares to host MLB All-Star Week in July. The Phillies moved to the ballpark in 2004 after 33 years at Veterans Stadium.
