Live-event safety technology

WHEN THE CROWD MOVES,
YOUR TEAM NEEDS TO KNOW.

GigRadar is building the safety and communication layer for live events — connecting security teams, event operations and attendees when coordination matters most.

EVENTS DON'T ALWAYS
GO TO PLAN.

A realistic walkthrough of how a single incident unfolds inside a large venue — and where the operational gaps usually are.

22:41
A major performance ends. Thousands of people begin moving toward the same exit.
22:42
Crowd density increases sharply around the main exit corridor.
22:43
A security officer identifies an incident near Zone C.
22:44
The control room needs to know, in seconds:
WHERE? WHO IS NEAREST? WHO IS RESPONDING? WHAT IS HAPPENING?
GigRadar

One operational view for the people responsible for keeping an event moving safely — so those four questions have answers before the situation gets worse.

The problem

THE OPERATIONAL BLIND SPOT

Security, medical, event management, venue operations and attendees often work with fragmented communication — separate radios, separate group chats, separate assumptions about what's happening.

ONE EVENT.
ONE OPERATIONAL VIEW.

A command view of attendee, security and medical presence, event zones and live incidents — built for the people running the event, not just the people attending it.

Real-world scenarios

BUILT AROUND REAL
EVENT SITUATIONS.

Five situations that shape how GigRadar is designed — from signal loss to multi-team coordination.

01

Signal Blackout

A large event experiences severe network congestion. How does the safety operation continue when conventional communication becomes unreliable?

Read the scenario → 02

Crowd Surge

Crowd movement rapidly changes around a venue zone. Can the team identify where the problem is developing and coordinate nearby response?

Read the scenario → 03

Medical Incident

An attendee requires assistance. How quickly can the right response team identify the location and coordinate help?

Read the scenario → 04

Separated Group

Friends or family become separated inside a large event. How can attendee safety tools help people stay connected?

Read the scenario → 05

Multi-Team Response

Security, medical and event operations need to coordinate around one incident. Can everyone work from the same operational picture?

Read the scenario →

Each scenario page walks through the operational question it raises and how GigRadar is designed to respond.

Connectivity

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
THE SIGNAL DISAPPEARS?

Tens of thousands of phones in one place overwhelms cellular networks fast. GigRadar's long-term architecture is built around that reality.

Every link in this chain can fail under crowd load — a single point of congestion breaks the whole path.

The GigRadar mesh layer Live: SOS relay

DEV

Device ↔ device ↔ device ↔ device — an SOS or show-stop alert relays over Bluetooth directly between nearby phones, hopping from device to device with no internet or cellular signal required.

What's built, what's next

Bluetooth mesh relay for SOS and show-stop alerts is built and shipping today — multi-hop, verified working across real devices with zero network connection. Extending that same resilience to the rest of squad connectivity (live location, chat) beyond emergency alerts is the direction the roadmap is heading.

Where GigRadar fits

BUILT FOR HOW AFRICA GATHERS.

Designed around the scale and texture of South African live events — from stadium concerts to religious gatherings.

Concerts

Main stage, crowd & exits

Stadiums

Tiered capacity, gate flow

Music Festivals

Multi-stage, multi-day

Religious Events

Mass gatherings, wellbeing

Corporate Events

Controlled-access venues

Exhibitions

Halls, stalls, foot traffic

Nightlife

Late-hours, dense venues

Public Gatherings

Open, uncontrolled crowds

Now onboarding partners

BUILDING WITH THE INDUSTRY.

GigRadar is moving toward pilot deployments with event organisers, venues and security operators. We're looking for selected partners who want to help test and shape the next generation of event safety technology.

Why GigRadar

DESIGNED AROUND REAL
OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS.

Event-specific safety technology

Built around live-event conditions — dense crowds, short windows to respond, and teams that need to move together.

Communication resilience

An architecture designed with network congestion in mind, not built on the assumption of a perfect connection.

Operational visibility

One shared view for command, security and medical teams instead of siloed radios and group chats.

Security coordination

Designed to help route incidents to the right personnel, with escalation when something goes unacknowledged.

Attendee safety

Squad-level tools that already help groups stay connected and reach each other in a crowd.

African event environments

Designed around South African live-event conditions first, not adapted from a template built elsewhere.
