Busy operators can miss changes, duplicate training and struggle to demonstrate that staff and freelancers have completed relevant preparation across multiple venues.", "audience": "Primary underserved users:\n- Grassroots and independent venues\n- Festival and event operators\n- Venue managers and duty managers\n- Freelance production and security workers\n- Promoters\n- Local authority licensing and safety teams\n- Universities and student unions operating venues\n- Training providers", "evidence_summary": "The consultation found that venues want to remain compliant but are frequently unaware of specific implementation requirements and funding.

Government guidance describes practical requirements and the Security Industry Authority's regulatory role.", "demand_signal": "Demand is indicated by:\n- An explicit regional proposal for a Live Events Safety Passport\n- New statutory responsibilities affecting public premises and events\n- Venue demand for concise funding and legislative alerts\n- High use of freelance and multi-venue workers\n- Need for consistent welfare and safeguarding training\n- Potential procurement by venue groups, councils and universities", "competition_signal": "Competition includes generic LMS platforms, ProtectUK resources, safety consultancies, SIA training, event safety qualifications and compliance management software.\n\nThe gap is music and live-events-specific orchestration for smaller operators.
