Saint Georges Management also found itself entrusted not only with the organisation and management of the whole Security system, but also with managing the protocol for all the Officials and VIPs present at this exceptional event and their security.

To achieve this objective, Saint Georges Management optimised the special relations it enjoys with the state security services, in particular the security and departmental services of the President of the Republic at the Elysée, along with those of the Paris Police Headquarters.
