UK music venues set to trial You Check’s digital health passport to reopen live music venues safety. The platform by London based start-up You Check was originally developed in mid-2019 as a secure ticketing\/ID verification system to reduce problematic secondary ticketing issues and public security concerns surrounding fraudulent ticket touts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the COVID-19 pandemic last year You Check has focused primarily on enabling live entertainment venues to re-open and prosper in the wake of the sector’s recovery; now securely connecting its technology with track and trace software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cdigital health passport\u201d \u2013 the system’s foundation; will allow venue door staff and ingress operations to quickly verify an attendee’ name, age, ticket and important test result in one place as well as providing a crucial communication link between promoters and their full audiences, beyond the primary ticket buyer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working closely with the Music Venue Trust (MVT) who through research have declared more than 400 grassroots music venues are at imminent risk of being closed permanently and the trials will take place at London\u2019s 100 Club and Bristol\u2019s 250 capacity Exchange.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You Check’s unique notification system has been adapted to assist trace and trace by securely and accurately connecting with attendees and their accompanying test result data. The platform which overcomes outdated, time-consuming entry processes and improves all functionality at events supports the secure ID documents from over 190+ countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re working, not exclusively, with Innova in terms of testing \u2013 technology that looks for a viral load high enough to be contagious with 97 per cent plus accuracy,\u201d<\/em> Fred Krefting, founder and COO at You Check recently told Event industry News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, event-goers can be channelled to test facilities replete with PHE approved kits, outcomes of which are loaded onto the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith Covid-19 the incubation period is two to five days. For the honeymoon phase after the test, it\u2019s the shorter the better, which means you\u2019re good to go to a show for 48 hours.\u201d Krefting added of the upcoming trials, “It\u2019s important to work alongside government when running these pilots and we\u2019re grateful to the DCMS for giving us the go-ahead.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plan is for the March shows in London and Bristol to be at 25 per cent capacity, two sets of tests with the same people, and to build up from there at venues across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou Check\u2019s identity first solution has a lot of potential to help venues and promoters manage risk,\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt has a fast and thorough authentication process which enables health information to be stored against portable digital identity and Music Venue Trust is pleased to be working with You Check to explore how this technology might form part of a comprehensive process which enables us to reopen every venue safely and revive live”<\/em> <\/strong>Music Venue Trust CEO, Mark Davyd, says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
