WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leading security technology company pioneering AI-based weapons detection to create safer experiences, today announced that Evolv Express® received two significant awards from Sports Business Journal as part of that publication’s annual Tech Week event in New York City on Tuesday.
Express was first named the winner in the “Best in Fan Experience Technology” category, in which it was selected over finalists from NASCAR, the NBA, the NHL, and the United States Golf Association and a total pool of 97 submissions. Later, at the end of an awards ceremony attended by hundreds of executives, technologists, journalists, and other sports industry leaders, Express was further honored as the “Best in Sports Technology” for 2024. The second honor put Express first among a total of 34 nominees in six categories, which in turn, were drawn from 271 submissions. These companies ranged from early-stage start-ups to leading tech giants.
In both cases, Express was selected by a panel of some 30 industry experts representing the full diversity of the sports industry, including teams, leagues, vendors, and content creators. Criteria for selection included innovation, organizational excellence, industry influence, and leadership in sports technology. The ability of Express to help deliver a safe and seamless ingress experience for fans, even during the busiest of times, was noted as Express’ most positive impact on the industry.
