Why have security at an AGM?

Intelligent Protection International Limited has carried out AGM security for the past decade for firms from around the world, we understand that reputation is everything.

Your company’s Annual General Meeting is your company showcasing its annual report to shareholders. Professional and helpful security staff can help set the scene and ensures that the AGM goes well and without incident.

In recent years, we have seen more and more incidents of organised protesters targeting corporate and private events in order to make a statement and to gain publicity for their cause. Activism has progressed over recent years and the tactics often deployed are troublesome.

Tactics have included spraying substances, throwing paint, rushing speakers on the stage and generally, being disruptive. Protesters want easy targets and they want to be heard. What they don’t want is to encounter professional security teams!

Having great security at your AGM will combat this in a number of ways, firstly protesters are a lot less likely to obtain access if there is intelligence in place and robust yet measured security in attendance.

Secondly, if you are planning to disrupt an AGM and encounter professional security and know that you are a lot less likely to succeed in disrupting proceedings, you are less likely to make an attempt to do so.

Overall, our job is all about safety and the comfort of your guests and shareholders.
