The halls of the NEC Birmingham buzzed with excitement and anticipation as attendees packed the venue, engaging with industry leaders and immersing themselves in the latest advancements in safety and security solutions.
Tristan Norman, Event Group Director, stated, “We are delighted to cement The Safety & Security Event Series as Europe’s No1 event for the protection of people, places and assets at its natural home in the heart of the UK, the NEC Birmingham. The 2024 edition has well and truly has exceeded all expectations. The turnout has been phenomenal, and the conversations onsite from exhibitors, partners, and visitors have been overwhelmingly positive.
