SIA poster looking for ISC event speakers

ISC Security Events Open Call for 2026 and 2027 Speaker Proposals

The Security Industry Association and ISC seek subject matter experts to present on emerging trends and public safety innovations.

The SIA and ISC Security Events have opened the call for speakers for the upcoming SIA Education@ISC programs at ISC East 2026 and ISC West 2027.

The associations are seeking proposals from subject matter experts to lead sessions at two of the industry’s largest security conferences. ISC East is scheduled for Nov. 3-5, 2026, at the Javits Center in New York City. ISC West is scheduled for April 5-9, 2027, at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas.

The SIA Education@ISC program focuses on delivering noncommercial, informative sessions regarding new technologies in security and public safety. Organizers are looking for presentations that highlight best practices, case studies and lessons learned within the physical, IT and IoT security sectors.

Prospective speakers may submit proposals covering various industry topics, including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure, school safety and robotics. According to event organizers, all sessions must remain strictly commercial-free.

Submissions for both conferences must be received by June 5. Selected speakers for the New York event will be notified by Aug. 24, while those selected for the Las Vegas event will receive notification by Sept. 14.

Individuals interested in submitting a session idea can apply here.

  • A8V MIND

    A8V MIND

    Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area.
