Security & Policing presents one of the leading opportunities to learn about the innovations, policies and cutting-edge technology available to respond to the latest and future security challenges and threats.
Security & Policing remains a closed event and all visitors are subject to Home Office approval and visitor criteria.
Speaker Programme
A key benefit of participation in Security & Policing is to gain insight and help contribute to thinking and driving change in Government and Law Enforcement.
This year there will once again be an extensive programme of keynotes and sessions led by senior UK Government officials, policing officials and industry speakers across the Keynote Briefing theatre, Fusion Forum and Innovation Zone.
The programme has been formally recognised as professional development where you can claim accredited CPD points with our partners The Security Institute.
Government Zone 
Get access and exposure to senior decision makers and policy developers in Government via our dedicated Government Zone where you can meet and engage with officials and operational staff from a range of UK Government departments and law enforcement agencies to hear their latest priorities, developments and collaboration opportunities.
Innovation Zone
Visit the Innovation Zone to network with government, industry, academia and international partners and discuss how we can use the latest science, innovation and technology to solve our collective security and policing challenges.
Following the success of the first ever Innovation Zone in 2023, the Security and Policing hub for science, innovation and technology is back with double the number of organisations to engage with and an exciting programme of speakers and activities. With briefings, panels, roundtables, networking sessions and more, you will hear the key government messages on science ambition and our current and future challenges, to kick-start two-way conversations on how we can understand and address threats and seize opportunities. Public- and private- sector collaboration is critical to this to align areas of shared interest and drive innovation where it is needed most.
The Spotlight Stage
The Spotlight Stage, (formerly known as The Fusion Forum),is designed to promote new and integrated ways to delivering security solutions across government, industry and academia.
Accessible to all visitors and exhibitors alike and serving as our central thought leadership hub, the Spotlight Stage is a centrally located interactive theatre on the main exhibition floor.
