Enhancing Event Security Through Innovation and Expertise with Stratoscope's Dan Donovan
In this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Dan Donovan, founder and managing partner of Stratoscope, about redefining event security through advanced technology and strategic planning. With a background in managing security for high-profile events like the Super Bowl and the Olympics, Dan shares insights on how his company is transforming safety measures to protect attendees while enhancing the overall event experience.
From integrating AI-based weapons detection to navigating the evolving threat landscape post-pandemic, Dan offers a wealth of actionable strategies for event organizers, security professionals, and business leaders aiming to prioritize both safety and guest satisfaction.
The Future of Event Security is Proactive and Tech-Driven
Dan Donovan brings a holistic approach to event security. At Stratoscope, his team doesn’t just react to threats—they anticipate and plan for them. Whether securing a global sports event or a private gathering, the process starts with rigorous risk assessments and ends with tailored security strategies that blend visibility and subtlety.

These tools allow for real-time monitoring and non-intrusive scanning, ensuring the event atmosphere remains enjoyable while maximizing safety. Dan emphasizes that true security success hinges on coordination with local law enforcement, detailed contingency planning, and well-trained personnel ready to handle any scenario.
Post-pandemic challenges have also transformed how Stratoscope operates. Health and safety protocols now complement traditional security measures, and Dan’s team has expanded their services to include hybrid and virtual event security, proving that adaptability is key in today’s environment.
