July 2013 News & Events

UBM Live, the organiser of IFSEC International, is excited to announce the start of its next chapter at ExCel, London in 2014. Following a phenomenal 40th year, IFSEC International will enter its next decade by relocating from NEC, Birmingham to ExCeL London in June 2014.

IFSEC International 2013 took place from 13–16 May 2013 and attracted 28 992 visitors (subject to ABC audit) flooding through the doors of IFSEC and FIREX. A three per cent visitor increase was seen across the whole Protection and Management Week, running alongside FIREX International, Facilities Show and Safety and Health Expo.

As IFSEC International prepares to move to London in 2014, more than 87% of the floor plan has already been rebooked. This provides the perfect platform to take the show to new heights next year and welcome an even wider community of security and fire professionals to the event.

Charlie Cracknell, event director for IFSEC International, said: “On the back of our extensive market research, we have been able to deliver IFSEC 2013 which genuinely meets the needs of an evolving security market. Showcasing a broad range of innovation across the industry, hosting prestigious industry awards, identifying market educational demands with the wide range of unique workshops and conference programmes have resulted in an uplift of total attendees.

With more than 87% of exhibitors confirming their participation at IFSEC 2014 in London; we are in a perfect position to grow and truly make IFSEC International the world’s hub for security.”
