ESSMA partner Safesight is thrilled to announce a cooperation with their first Belgian football club, KAA Gent
“Dirk Piens (Director Organisation, Infrastructure & Safety): we had our eye on Safesight for a while now and I am glad that we - as the first Belgian club - are now really going to start. With Safesight we are able to inform and instruct our employees optimally. And with the cloud-based logbook, all events that (may) affect the continuity of our organization are easily registered and shared. With Safesight, we take the next step in organising safe football matches. Safesight x KAA Gent”
