The next UK Security Expo on November 29 and 30 will feature nine conference strands and 200 speakers covering the breadth of the security and counter terror sector, say organisers.
Global Counter Terrorism, Protecting Crowded Places, Major Events and Stadium Security, Critical National Infrastructure and Designing out Terrorism all return for 2017. Aviation and Border Security and Maritime and Mass Transit Security have been expanded. Cyber Security and Counter Terrorism for Facilities Management are new after workshops that ran in 2016.
The Global Counter Terrorism conference runs over two days, a paid for event that will cover UK Border Security after Brexit, Countering Radicalisation and Tackling Extremism, UK/Europe/NATO and Trump’s America and Migration. All other conferences are free to attend.
Peter Jones, Chief Executive, UK Security Expo says: “Over two days, the UK Security Expo conference programme covers every aspect of counter terrorism and security with over 70 hours of educational content. We are delighted to have confirmed the participation of many high-level organisations, including heads of authorities, senior government speakers, law enforcement and heads of end-user security.
“The extensive programme, which is all CPD accredited by the Security Institute will deliver high-level insight into the key issues for security and counter terror, alongside practical advice, best practice insight and solutions to the challenges ahead. The conference is an integral part of the offering at UK Security Expo and we are looking forward to releasing the full agenda next month.”
And the former Labour Government Security Minister, Admiral Lord West, Chairman of UK Security Expo adds: “The UK is ideally suited to being the global centre of excellence for security given our long history in counter terrorism, joint approach between government and the private sector exemplified by the new National Cyber Security Centre and the reputation our intelligence and security agencies have world-wide. UK Security Expo is the high-end security event that showcases that centre of excellence.”
