Security for the Nation is the theme of the Assocation of Security Consultants’ 14th Annual Conference and Exhibition, on November 6. It’s at the Royal Air Force Museum, Grahame Park Way, Hendon, London NW9 5LL.
As organisers put it, threat and risk continually transform, like a virus, suddenly breaking out and almost inevitably surprising and catching us on the back foot. The globalisation of business has led to the globalisation of threat and risk and it is therefore vital for both security professionals and business
leaders to work together, to try to moderate the ‘almost inevitable’ into the ‘nearly predictable’. The most effective way forward is in shared experiences and knowledge.
the continuity of business.
Who should attend?
The conference is aimed at besides consultants, government, police, commerce, finance, retail, industry security professionals, architects, designers, contractors, plus all those who have a responsibility for security and safety of their staff.
