Now in its 50th year, Ifsec is the ever-popular annual trade show and industry gathering for the global security sector, held at London’s Excel exhibition venue. Organised by Informa Markets, it is the largest and longest running security related event in the United Kingdom, regularly welcoming over 20,000 visitors from the UK and over 115 different countries.

The BSIA has been hosting its members lounge at the event since 1997, and this year will see the Association celebrating the 26th year of this partnership, showcasing its latest launches and providing a meeting and networking space for members, industry and government stakeholders and potential members.

Mike Reddington, Chief Executive, BSIA, said: “We value our long standing association with such a prestige marquee event in the security calendar, and the continued partnership with Ifsec is something that is of immense value to both the BSIA and its members.

“Ifsec continues to be an invaluable networking and business led environment for anyone working within the security buying chain across intrusion, video surveillance, access control, and cyber security, and we look forward to continue to being able to facilitate these relationships for these sectors on our stand in 2023 and beyond.”

Gerry Dunphy, Event Director Ifsec & Firex, said: ‘’Ifsec is fully committed to supporting the UK security industry and we have enjoyed a long and successful relationship with the BSIA for over 26 years.

“We’re equally delighted to be able to renew our existing agreement and look forward to continuing to provide a dynamic and effective platform for the BSIA to pursue its strategies in the sector, as well as helping them to support and promote the interests of the membership.’’
