New Orleans, Here We Come

The GSX security tradeshow in Orlando proved to be a tremendous success, with Day One already seeing a vibrant and steady flow of attendees. The bustling foot traffic was a clear indication of the event’s continued importance in the security industry, attracting professionals from all over.

For me, one of the best aspects of attending GSX is the opportunity to reconnect with veteran acquaintances—those familiar faces that remind me of how much the industry has grown. At the same time, it is equally rewarding to meet new people, exchange ideas and build fresh connections that keep things dynamic.

As always, GSX brings together a rich mix of expertise and innovation, making it an exciting space to stay ahead of industry trends. Looking ahead, the excitement is already building for GSX 2025, which will take place in the vibrant city of New Orleans. With its unique culture and energy, it's sure to add another exciting chapter to this flagship event. I cannot wait to see what next year holds.
