Protest Response Planning
At Meridiant Global, we specialize in proactive, professional protest response planning to ensure the safety of your event, protect key individuals, and preserve the integrity of your programming, even in the face of potential disruption. Our approach begins with detailed, intelligence-led risk assessments to identify protest threats, activist groups, and reputational vulnerabilities that may impact your venue or brand.
We design layered, discreet response protocols tailored to your event type and location. Our team deploys trained personnel throughout the venue to detect early signs of protest activity and respond immediately with de-escalation strategies that prioritize safety and continuity.
Meridiant also works in close coordination with local law enforcement, venue security, and event organizers to establish unified command structures, clarify response roles, and ensure all actions are compliant, measured, and effective. From peaceful demonstrations to more complex security challenges, our planning keeps your people protected and your event secure.
Pre-Event Threat & Protest Risk Assessments
We conduct intelligence-driven evaluations to identify potential protest activity, activist groups, or reputational risks that may impact your event. This allows us to proactively shape response strategies and adjust access or staffing plans in advance.
Discreet, Layered Response Planning
Our protest response protocols are designed to de-escalate peacefully and discreetly. We embed trained personnel throughout the venue to monitor for early indicators, respond within seconds, and protect VIPs, speakers, and attendees while minimizing disruption to programming.
Integration with Law Enforcement & Venue Security
We coordinate directly with local police, venue management, and corporate stakeholders to ensure unified command, clear response roles, and lawful handling of both peaceful and disruptive protest scenarios.
