SIA Opens Nominations for 2024 “25 on the RISE Awards”

The Security Industry Association (SIA) has opened the call for nominations for the second annual 25 on the RISE Awards– a program presented by SIA’s RISE community for emerging security leaders. Each year, this initiative honors 25 security leaders of today and tomorrow for their impactful contributions to advancing the security industry.

The 2024 class of 25 on the RISE awardees will be honored during a special award ceremony at Securing New Ground (SNG), taking place Oct. 8-9 in New York City.

“It was truly inspiring to see the first class of SIA 25 on the RISE awardees on stage at SNG last year alongside longtime industry leaders, and we are thrilled to bring this special program back in 2024,” said SIA CEO Don Erickson. “This initiative honors the exceptionally talented individuals in security who are driving growth and change in the areas of diversity, innovation and impact in and out of their workplaces and in the industry at large, and we look forward to celebrating the next class of awardees at SNG 2024.”
