(Courtesy Patriot One) PatScan system uses artificial intelligence to identify threats The Los Angeles Football Club is deploying Patriot One Technologies’ PatScan system at its Banc of California Stadium, which officials of the company and the MLS team think will help reduce guest experience friction by bringing artificial intelligence to bear at gates and, eventually, in security operations throughout the venue.

(Courtesy LAFC) Concessionaires help design social experiences, wider range of offerings for soccer fans  Already this Major League Soccer season, Minnesota United FC has opened $250 million Allianz Field and the Portland Timbers have pumped $85 million into expanding and renovating Providence Park.

It also offers better programming to align with expanded ticket offerings, such as all-inclusive, open-air social gathering spots and a broader mix of higher-end clubs and suites.  “We see an increase… Continue Reading New MLS Venues Renew Premium Hospitality
