Canadian Security Market Leaders Join Forces to Deliver UK Security Symposium
by Shaun Illingworth, Ph.D.

Never has the topic of enhancing the physical security in commercial and government buildings been more top-of-mind.

A number of Canadian security product companies are providing a hands-on approach to explore how Physical Security, Digital CCTV and Access Control technology applications are being used today by UK-based and other international organizations to enhance their ability to detect and assess threats and secure their facilities.

Senstar-Stellar, March Networks and EST International have joined forces to host a three-city security symposium tour that will take place in London, Manchester and Birmingham starting on September 15th.

The UK Security Symposium will see a total of six seminars to be held during the week of Sept 15th. The tour starts in Birmingham, and then moves to Manchester for the second seminar, prior to four seminar sessions in London. During the seminars, representatives from the Canadian companies will share their expertise on how these technology applications are being used by organizations such as the London City Airport, Vanguard, the International Civil Aviation Authority, Celtic Manor Resort, Gatwick Airport, and Orange PLC.

Security installers, consultants and systems integrators are invited to attend any one of the London, Manchester or Birmingham events, to understand and discuss the business opportunities presented by integrating these products into their portfolio. Full details on the events are available at: www.marchnetworks.com/uk.
