Friday, January 16, 2026
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), winners of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, have announced a strategic partnership with Staqu to deploy JARVIS, Staqu’s advanced audio-video intelligence platform, to enhance security and safety across the M Chinnaswamy Stadium — reinforcing crowd monitoring, intrusion detection, access control and proactive incident response.
The initiative — a first-of-its-kind tri-party collaboration between RCB, Chinnaswamy Stadium authorities and Staqu — brings powerful AI to the stadium, tailored to safeguard fans and personnel during high-attendance events. By integrating JARVIS’ real-time analytics, the partnership aims to strengthen surveillance, reduce risks associated with crowd movement and support rapid detection of unsafe situations such as stampedes, unauthorised entry, intrusion and other security threats, including fire-related or emergent hazards.
This collaboration builds on RCB’s ongoing commitment to fan welfare and enhanced stadium safety protocols following recent initiatives focused on structured crowd management and supporter engagement, reaffirming the franchise’s resolve to prioritise peaceful, safe and secure matchday experiences for all. In recent official communications on social platforms, RCB reiterated its dedication to improving safety frameworks at the venue and working with stakeholders to design better standards and support for fans and families impacted by past incidents.
One of the world’s most beloved cricket teams, RCB continues to innovate on and off the field — with Champions on the pitch and serious AI powering security behind the scenes.
