“We are once again adapting the educational content at the show to ensure visitors are able to address their needs,” said James Blue, director of fire and security at UBM Live, organizers of IFSEC. “In light of the challenges security installers are facing, these complimentary targeted seminars will offer unrivalled guidance and expertise. Together with the New Product and Technology Showcases and the three-day Conference, IFSEC 2009 will deliver the most comprehensive educational content ever to be featured at a security event.”
