Interviews

Add to IFSEC 2014

by Mark Rowe

A Safe Cities Conference & Exhibition has been launched by UBM Live.

It’s to run in London, on June 17 to 19, 2014. The event will be co-located with UBM’s IFSEC, FIREX, IOSH Conference and Exhibition, Safety and Health and Facilities Management. Business Continuity will also be a major element of the conference, to appeal to the commercial sector, senior business leaders and civil resilience.

Promised at Safe Cities are more than 100 specialist exhibitors and access to a further 800 firms across the co-located events; 4,000 dedicated international decision and policy makers ; Keynote Theatre talks and VIP networking opportunities. Workshops, panel discussions, standalone presentations and case studies, city and facility tours with live technology and product demonstration.

Charlie Cracknell, Event Director, said: “Safe Cities will build a platform for the future development within this strategically critical space. Market niches in public safety spaces such as Counter Terrorism, Cyber Security and Emergency Service can no longer work as isolated fixes for public safety. Public budget constraints and technological approaches will no longer allow these niches to occur in siloed approaches.

“Safe Cities is an event that is fit for its time. It will serve the interest of the whole industry by bringing together leading stakeholders and technology providers to raise the agenda of how to improve public safety. Authorities and the private sector are under increasing pressure to collaborate through technology and strategy, increase working and budgetary efficiencies, as well as, preparing against the ever increasing threats of cyber attacks, terrorism and natural disasters.”
