Dedicated maritime security zone at Expo

New solutions and shared actions are required to protect ships, shipping routes, ports and harbours, and the entire international supply chain. In recognition of this new reality, Counter Terror Expo 2014, the largest international counter terrorism and security event of its kind, will be focusing on both the threats and the possible solutions in a dedicated Maritime Security/Maritime Counter Terrorism Zone. The event takes place at the Olympia in London on 29-30 April 2014.

This Zone will be fulfilling a critical function in providing a forum for key industry players to interact, engage in the debate and learn about new technologies as well as promote the innovative products and services their companies have to offer.

A large number of organisations have already committed to exhibiting within the Zone and contributing to its workshops.

Building on the success of 2013, the first year a dedicated Maritime Security Zone was established at Counter Terror Expo, this year’s event will provide visitors with direct access to maritime industry leaders, decision makers from naval forces, and experts from some of those countries most deeply involved in the security of the high seas.

Areas of maritime security to be represented include:

· Anti- piracy services (including special ops equipment)

· Command and information systems

· Crisis management services (including hostage negotiation training)

· High risk shore end cable lay

· Maritime border and cargo security equipment

· Onshore marine intelligence

· Radar and sonar detection

· Sensors and communication systems

· Ship security assessment services

· Surveillance and security systems

· Underwater security equipment (including pipeline protection)

· Unexploded ordnance disposal
