Expo Seguridad México Supero Expectativas

Es verdad que tenemos muchas exposiciones buenas en los Estados Unidos; el espacio usado cuenta por mucho. Pero Expo Seguridad, que se llevó a cabo en el Centro Banamex, una sala de conferencias gigante, supero las expectativas de los visitantes y expositores.

El tercer día de la exposición fue un éxito. Aunque el horario del Expo fue extraño para mi (la conferencia empezaba a las dos de la tarde y no se acababa hasta las ocho), nunca hubo una escasez de visitantes.

En su octavo año, el Expo crecio 30% en numero de visitantes y 20% en numero de expositores. Mas de 300 expositores invirtieron en el evento y, basado en lo que pude observar, cada stand estaba lleno con visitantes. Si, algunos visitantes sólo vinieron a recoger plumas, pero la mayoría de los visitantes estaban interesados en soluciones de seguridad.

Muchos de los expositores eran de los EE.UU., pero los distribuidores en Ciudad México desempeñaron un papel importante en atrayendo nuevos visitantes al evento. Por ejemplo, Inalarm, unos de los patrocinadores corporativos del evento, es unos de los distribuidores más grandes en Ciduad México. Fueron acompañados por Sermex y Syscom, dos distribuidores grandes en México. DSC, Samsung, Schneider Electric y UTC Fire and Security tambien fueron patrocinadores corporativos.

Fue bueno ver unas cuantas empresas de los Estados Unidos incluyendo Pelco, Anixter, Altronix, Axis, Bolide, Boon Edam, DKS Doorking, CBC America, Bosch, Digiop, Everfocus, FLIR, HID, HAI, Infinova, NVT, PCSC, Panasonic, Rainbow CCTV, Rolland Safe and Lock, STI, Tyco y Winstead Corp.

Muchos fabricantes de seguridad estaban presente incluyendo Axis Communications, March Networks, Cisco Systems, Keri Systems,  Linear, Milestone Systems, Optelecom, Optex y Southwest Microwave.

Pienso que el Expo supero las expectativas de los más de 13 mil visitantes y 300 expositores.

Felicitaciones a Giprex por organizar un evento éxitoso.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
