Public Venue Security & Counter- Terrorism Summit APAC 2018
Following high-profile terrorist attacks across Europe, Asia, and the U.S., together with continued violence across the Middle East, the threat of terrorism on public venues seems to be growing. Threats on 'soft' targets, including high-profile public events, hotels, nightclubs and restaurants, sporting events, places of worship, shopping malls, markets, and public transportation systems reveal the vulnerability of mass gatherings. The deadly 2017 Manchester Arena attack at Arianna Grande concert and the coordinated deadly 2015 Paris attacks have not only caused large amounts of sufferings but also costs businesses significant losses.
Unfortunately, the unpredictability of an occurrence disregards the organisation’s preparedness – and security professionals need to revise their security strategies before it happens. The 'Public Venue Security & Counter-Terrorism Summit' will bring together expert security professionals, counter-terrorism experts and law enforcement policy-makers to share effective practical strategies for highest organisational effectiveness at lowest marginal risk.
