GovSec Europe

All nations and governments have similar security challenges.
Efforts to prepare for, respond to and recover from attacks and disasters top their agenda. At the same time, new products, technology and equipment are evolving at an exceedingly rapid pace.

The bottom line? What worked yesterday may be obsolete or ineffective today. And planning, response and recovery hinge on interoperability of three integrated, multidimensional functions:

Government Security
Law Enforcement
Emergency


On the 6th and 7th of June 2007, Brussels Expo organizes the first European edition of GovSec – Law Enforcement – Ready! Expo & Conference.
Europe: a potential market of 500.000.000 inhabitants, very concerned about security.

Brussels: capital of Europe; second highest concentration of diplomatic missions in the world; host of the Nato headquarters, the European Commission and hundreds of multinationals for whom security is an important issue.

Our goal?

  • - Providing a wide range of solutions to address safety and security challenges.
  • - Offering an appealing and varied conference program in order to attract key players from across Europe.
  • - Creating a business matchmaking summit where decision makers and exhibitors can organize face to face meetings.
