Growing Regional Demand For Safety And Security Driving Market
2013-12-19 12:58:00 – The Middle East region, of crucial importance to the global economy as leading producers of oil and natural gas, is currently being viewed as an increasingly significant market by the global safety, security and fire protection industries. Given the current uncertainties that prevail in many countries around the region, safety and safety are increasingly high-priority issues for governments and commercial ventures in the region. This emphasis on greater security is felt in many ways including growing expenditure on security infrastructure, equipment and personnel by regional authorities as well as an increasing awareness in society about the importance of maintaining a safe and secure environment. Given all this, it’s not really surprising that Epoc Messe Frankfurt, organiser of Intersec, the region’s safety, security, fire protection and policing trade and networking exhibition, is expecting the 2014 edition to be the biggest yet. With over 80% of exhibition space already sold out, Intersec 2014 looks set to break all previous records in terms of both participation and attendance. Already all of the world’s ten largest security companies have confirmed attendance, including Honeywell Security, Bosch Security Systems, ASSA ABLOY, FLIR Systems, AXIS Communications, Samsung Techwin and Tyco International* along with 150 exhibitors making their regional debut. According to Ahmed Pauwels, CEO of Epoc Messe Frankfurt, the continued success of Intersec is being driven by the rapid development of the safety and security industry regionally. “Across the Middle East authorities are improving security infrastructure, enhancing policing and crime fighting capability and […]
