Premier Sports Network, the elite sports business development agency, today announced the continuation of its strategic partnership with Xtract One Technologies, a leading provider of security screening solutions for sports and entertainment venues.

The partnership builds upon Xtract One's significant momentum in the sports security sector, following their successful deployments of their SmartGateway technology at  amongst others, Madison Square Garden  Manchester’s Co-Op Live Arena and Kansas City's CPKC Stadium, the first purpose-built women's football stadium.

"Fan safety has become increasingly critical in professional sports but it is also an opportunity to improve fan experience," said Spencer Hidge, CEO of Premier Sports Network. "This partnership reinforces our commitment to connecting elite sports organizations with best-in-class security solutions."

Xtract One's technology is currently implemented across numerous high-profile venues, including The Sphere in Las Vegas and Madison Square Garden in New York. The company has also established a strategic partnership with Oak View Group, which operates major venues such as Acrisure Arena and UBS Arena.

"The recent security incidents at international sporting events have highlighted the urgent need for advanced screening solutions," said David Watts, Managing Director of Premier Sports Network. "Our renewed collaboration with Xtract One positions us to address these challenges head-on, providing venues with cutting-edge security technology."

The partnership will focus on expanding Xtract One's presence across professional sports venues in the UK and Europe.
