Empowering the Next Generation of Asia-Pacific Venue Leaders 

At 24/7 Software, we’re proud to lead the way in incident and operations management for the world’s most dynamic venues — whether it’s a packed stadium or arena, a bustling convention centre, or a local venue serving its community. 

Our real-time platform empowers teams to enhance safety, streamline processes, unify communication, boost efficiency, and elevate the guest experience — all through a single pane of glass approach to venue operations. 

Globally, we support a significant number of innovative venues in North America, along with many iconic destinations across Europe and the UK. In APAC, we proudly work with leading organisations including Melbourne Parks, Marvel Stadium, the MCG, Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Stadiums Queensland, and State Sports Centres. Our purpose-built tools are designed to be proactive, not reactive — helping venue professionals tackle today’s challenges while building operational resilience for the future. 

As part of our commitment to venue safety, security, and leadership development across the APAC region, we’ve partnered with the Venue Management Association (VMA) to offer the 24/7 Software Venue Safety & Operational Leadership Scholarship. 

About the Scholarship 

This scholarship recognises rising professionals across the Australasian and broader APAC venue industry who are passionate about: 

  • Safety and security leadership and management 
  • Operational resilience and team coordination 
  • Delivering seamless guest experiences 
  • Continuous improvement in venue performance 

It’s about supporting those who go above and beyond — professionals committed to shaping safer, smarter, and more responsive venues. 

What’s Included 

The recipient will receive full enrolment to the Institute of Venue Safety & Security (IVSS) — the region’s premier program for developing expertise in venue safety, security and preparedness, emergency planning, and operational leadership. 

Held annually in Sydney, IVSS brings together venue professionals from across Australia, New Zealand, and the wider Asia-Pacific region to build capability, share knowledge, and strengthen industry standards. 

Let’s Shape the Future Together 

At 24/7 Software, we believe the future of great venues starts with great people. This scholarship is our way of investing in the next generation of venue leaders across APAC — professionals dedicated to raising the standard of security, safety, operations, and the guest experience. 

Smarter Operations. Safer Venues. Stronger Leaders.
