8 SAFETY AND SECURITY The threats to the safety and security of sport are global, complex and challenging. Issues such as venue design, venue security, crowd management and counter terrorism confront major event organisers and sports venues on a daily basis. Our Core Services Threat and Risk Assessments Venue Security Master Planning Venue Security Design Major Sporting Event Safety and Security Operational Planning - Bidding and Hosting Specialist Training for Sport Safety and Security Professionals Our expert team has assessed and secured some of the largest sporting events and most recognisable venues in the world, offering an international approach to sport safety and security. The ICSS uses innovative strategies, practices and techniques to achieve the overall aim of safeguarding sport. We believe that this can only be achieved by empowering safety and security practitioners and developing recognised global standards in sport safety and security, as well as the security design of sport facilities. We regularly develop new tools and frameworks to support bid committees, venue designers and architects, major event organisers and venue owners in staging safer sporting events. Our Safety, Security and Integrity (SSI) Model and Sport Facility Security Design Model are just two of the pioneering resources that have been developed by the ICSS. We aim to make them recognised frameworks for organisations striving to ensure the highest levels of safety and security at their major sporting event or sport facility. Our Safety and Security team is led by Executive Director, Malcolm Tarbitt (pictured right), who has over 30 years of experience across major sport events, law enforcement and security.

9 INTEGRITY, TRANSPARENCY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION The integrity of sport is under threat and the challenges are both global and constantly evolving. Without integrity, sport is meaningless. Breaches of integrity not only damage the values of sport, but also erode its popularity, commercial viability and ultimately, its survival. In response to these threats, the ICSS has established a specialist Sport Integrity team to provide valued integrity support across all sports and develop world-class initiatives and policy influencing research. Our Core Services Cutting-Edge Ideas, Analysis and Policy Research Specialist Integrity and Transparency Advice Match-Fixing Awareness Seminars and Professional Training Intelligence and Investigation Support Extensive Information and Knowledge Services Culture Change, Promoting Fit-for-Purpose Institutional Approaches grounded on a Self-Cleaning Culture The ICSS Sport Integrity team works closely with key stakeholders such as UNESCO, UNODC, OECD, Council of Europe and the Sorbonne University, and believes in developing innovative education and prevention programmes.

In May 2014, the ICSS and the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne unveiled the ground-breaking key findings from its two-year research programme as well as guiding principles to provide sport, government and betting with practical recommendations to combat corruption in sport.

10 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ICSS ENTERPRISE 18 ICSS Enterprise helps communities, cities and countries ride the next wave of innovation ICSS Enterprise is tasked with the research and development of new, innovative solutions which enable the ICSS to maintain a thought-leading role in the world of sport safety, security, integrity and legacy. Sport creates jobs, delivers numerous economic advantages and has the potential to deliver social benefits for cities and countries, especially those that host major international sporting events. But too often, the benefits experienced from safe, secure and clean sport are limited in scope and duration. So, how exactly can cities and countries maximise the long-term benefits of sport? To help answer this question, ICSS Enterprise is working with leading academics and sport economists around the world to support local and national governments, major event rights holders, international federations and multi-national corporations to identify new opportunities and catalysts for growth through sport. With a belief in helping communities, ICSS Enterprise supports cities and countries to ride the next industrial wave by using sport as a means to encourage economic diversity and entrepreneurship. ICSS Sport Index One of the key initiatives of ICSS Enterprise is the ICSS Sport Index, developed in collaboration with the Harvard Kennedy School s Center for International Development. Encouraged and supported by the World Bank and UNESCO, the ICSS Sport Index aims to become a powerful and unique approach in economic development and competitiveness and identifies ways to use sport to facilitate and stimulate short, medium and long-term economic growth and social impact. It is a ground-breaking and comprehensive approach that analyses the potential of a city or country to enhance and develop its sports-related economy and/or to use sport as a catalyst for economic diversity and growth. ICSS Enterprise is led by its Executive Director Dr Shaun McCarthy (pictured right). Shaun has over 35 years experience in the security and intelligence sectors of government, as well as in economic diversity and development, including senior roles as Director for Special Operations for Kroll and Vice President of Monitor Group.
