by Mark Rowe

Ben Wallace, the Home Office Minister of State for Security will deliver a keynote address at the UK Security Expo on day one, Wednesday November 30, at 10:30am. Ben Wallace, a former Army officer, is Conservative MP for Wyre and Preston North. The two-day exhibition and conference runs at Olympia in London, and opens at 9am each day.

The former Home Office minister Admiral Lord West, Chairman of UK Security Expo says: “As the security world grapples with the fallout from Brexit and the intentions of President Donald Trump, UK Security provides a forum to debate the key issues in what has arguably been the most volatile 12 months in global politics. For our 8,000 visiting heads of security, designers, consultants, architects, FMs and emergency planners, this is a timely opportunity to hear insight first-hand from the Minister.”

On Thursday, December 1 at the expo, The Director General of Border Force, Sir Charles Montgomery will deliver a presentation on the UK’s Border Security Strategy followed by a keynote from the former chief of MI5, Sir Jonathan Evans who will discuss the security implications for the UK arising from the summer vote to leave the European Union.

Peter Jones, Chief Executive, Nineteen Events says: “UK Security Expo offers access to over 150 world-renowned speakers discussing the most pressing issues. With over 200 exhibitors demonstrating the latest products and technologies, plus the Home Office JSaRC and CPNI immersive demonstration of Securing Crowded Places, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more impressive collaboration of government and industry at such an important time.”
