Combining their market leading experience, the three specialist security technology provides saw a gap in the industry for an event where likeminded individuals could come together, to learn, network, discuss and share topics that will potentially affect them now and in the future.
These events aim to bring together end users and consultants operating within the industry and provide them with practical support on best practices to mitigate risk associated with trending topics.
These Open Forum Events bring together a wealth of experience in the security industry and deliver high quality events at which delegates will hear from leading thinkers, influencers and keynote speakers and can learn and discuss latest industry developments and best practices.
The events aim to deliver engaging experiences for the attendees, at unique locations, that explore topics at the forefront of the UKs security agenda, including mitigating risk and management of risk, regulatory compliance, latest legislations, and upcoming use of innovative technologies.
Jason Blundell, Head of Sales and Marketing for Cortech Developments, comments “The Open Event Forums are a fantastic opportunity for delegates to network with trusted advisors in the industry and their peers, to get around the table and talk about what matters to them. Our job as facilities for The Open Forum is to provide a place where attends can openly share experiences, learn & discuss key challenges, and understand the latest updates. These interactive events are not a place where guests are directly sold to, or involve sitting and listening to presentations all day, the whole theory behind them is to make them engaging and interactive from an audience viewpoint and stimulate conversations with likeminded people.”
Following the success of the initial pilot event, where delegates discussed Protect Duty aka Martyn’s Law, threat assessments and hostile vehicle mitigation discussions are already happening for the next event.
One thing that sets these events aside from other industry event and makes them different is the format of the day. Mixing breakout groups and topical presentations with time in-between to digest and openly discuss.
This specific format allows for The Open Forum to achieve one of its key objectives – providing a platform to allow delegates to openly share experiences and challenges with their peers. The audience is aimed at and consisted of organisations from a variety of different verticals including but not limited to, the utilities sector, high security sector, private sector, government sector and the hospitality sector, which give a fantastic opportunity for delegates to hear first-hand how other sectors are tackling similar challenges to themselves.
Do not worry if you were unable to attend the first Open Event Forum back in March, plans are already underway for the next event, including discussions on dates, locations, topics, and guest speakers. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled on our social media channels and websites where details will be announced.
