Companies such as Leading commercial, homeland and cyber security,
fire protection, safety suppliers among others will be participating at the
exhibition to discuss their latest security initiatives, trends, challenges and
emerging technologies.
The exhibition trade show
is focused on evaluating existing counter terrorism policies, understanding new
domain threats posed by regionally active militant organisations, cyber
security, training security forces, strategic approaches to emerging threats
and accessing gaps in existing commercial and homeland security infrastructure, implementing effective resilience
measures to mitigate potential crisis.
Mr. Fola Arthur-Worrey, CEO of Lagos State Security Trust Fund who
spoke on the exhibition affirmed that, "In these times of increasing
concerns surrounding national and internal security, not just in Nigeria but
indeed across the globe, security exhibitions such as Securex are critical in
interrogating current security challenges and then designing appropriate
national, sub-national and private sector responses to them; and, more
particularly, in driving specialization across the broad spectrum of possible
responses both human and technological.”
Also, Mr. Sean McCarthy,
Regional Sales Manager in the Exports Division at Elvey Security Technologies,
South Africa said “For our company, the greatest value we generate from
exhibiting at a show like this is the exposure we get to an expanded installer
market as well as business leaders from various other sectors, such as the
banking industry, for example.”
The Securex West Africa trade show was organised by Montgomery
West Africa and sponsored by HIK Vision, Halogen Security, Kontz Engineering
and Rapid Vigil; supported by the United Kingdom Trade and Investment,
Association of Industrial Security and Safety Operators of Nigeria, Nigerian
Institute for Industrial Security, Institute of Safety Professional Of Nigeria, International Institute of Professional
