Securex provides visitors with an unrivalled opportunity to view, discuss and source products and services from leading South African and international manufacturers and suppliers. Securex has a long history in the sector as the leading exhibition for security and fire professionals to interact with the best-in-breed suppliers.

Securex and the co-located exhibition A-OSH Expo 2015, which will be held at Gallagher Convention Centre in Johannesburg from 12 to 14 May, continue to bring education to the fore through a number of targeted seminars and conferences. These educational sessions focus on building a professional future for risk mitigation within organisations and addressing current security and fire issues.

"We have revised the Securex brand in line with our Africa-centricity and a number of new features have been added to our popular existing features, to bring further value to visitors," says Joshua Low, Securex Event Director at show organiser Specialised Exhibitions Montgomery.

The Securex Free-to-Attend Seminar Theatre will provide visitors with access to up-to-the-minute information on best practice, as well as pertinent industry-related and legislative issues.

Topics at the seminar include: 'Africa: Tapping into growth opportunities, challenges and strategies'; 'Funding for security SMEs', 'Adherence to fire standards' and 'Cyber security: A pertinent business risk'.
The Installer Workshop is being launched at Securex 2015 to address the gap in what is deemed a very important sector of the industry. This interactive educational platform will provide installers with the latest technology trends and best practice from specialists in the field. Topping off the programme, an installer competition will be run on 14 May.

A new products showcase will be erected in a prominent area at Securex 2015. This will allow visitors to preview the latest technology in a number of security and fire modalities.

A new service - known as the Global Meetings Programme - will see visitors to both exhibitions matched up with companies that are best able to devise solutions to their apparent threats and risks. This will substantially reduce the time it takes to find a suitable supplier, allowing visitors to maximise their time at Securex 2015 by setting up meetings with exhibitors prior to even arriving at Securex 2015.

In addition to the extensive array of traditional security technology such as surveillance and access control, visitors to Securex 2015 can also look forward to more in-depth coverage of other security modalities such as cybersecurity and guarding services. Attention to the growing field of fire detection, monitoring and prevention will increase and the Fire Protection Association of South Africa (FPASA) will run a Fire Hazard Identification Challenge throughout the three days of the exhibition.
