UAE residents, corporates, SMEs and visitors were found checking out various safety and security solutions as the Intersec 2016 witnessed large number of visitors for the launch of new solutions across the various spectrums of the security exhibition.
Visitors at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre were checking out various innovative solutions that offered futuristic security options such as new Smart Home section at Intersec 2016 buzzing with activity, where a live demonstration area in a simulated villa offered visitors a real-time showcase of smart home products in action, ranging from digital door locks and home video cameras, to roller shutters, door video phone panels, TV controllers, and monitors.
With 83 per cent international exhibitors, Intersec 2016 will be the most internationally representative ever, while UAE exhibitor participation is also at an all-time high, growing eight per cent over the previous year, with 217 exhibitors covering 10,400sqm of exhibition space.
Confirming the overwhelming response, Monica Kubik, official of Business Matchmaking Team, Intersec 2016, said: "This season has been very busy compared to last year. We have confirmed up to 2,500 confirmed meetings scheduled under 'business match making' for the event."
Among the exhibitors at the live demonstration area was CP Plus, which launched its EazyCam and Intrusion Alarm Systems. Gaurav Khemka, the director of CP Plus, said: "The Middle East is waking up to the potential of smart home technology and its impact on security. Significant interest is being shown in adopting new security products and solutions that can make homes more cohesive and safer."
Meanwhile, Commercial Security continued to be among the key drawcards at Intersec, and with 37 of the world's top 50 commercial security solutions providers on board, 2016 is no different. That includes the entire top ten of Honeywell, Hikvision, Bosch, Safran, Dahua, Assa Abloy, Tyco, Flir Systems, Samsung Techwin, and Axis Communications. Showcasing everything from video surveillance and access control solutions, to identification systems and intrusion alarms, the best known brands in the industry are eagerly capitalising on a fast-growing Middle East market for physical security equipment, which is estimated to grow 36 per cent in 2016, to be worth $5.2 billion.
Among these are Sony Professional Solutions, which is showcasing its 4K and XI surveillance cameras used for wide area surveillance in maritime, port, border, and airports. Aydin Tolani, Business Head of Visual Presentations Solutions at Sony Professional Solutions, said: "In terms of the regional security systems market, larger investments continue to be made in the region to ensure safety and security. We have also noticed 4K imaging is gaining importance in the security segment. The benefits of 4K and beyond will prove invaluable for outdoor city surveillance and transportation markets such as airport, railways, stadium entrances or the like where large coverage is essential for situational awareness."
Other new additions this year at Intersec 2016 include a Safety Design in Buildings Pavilion in the Fire & Rescue section, along with a dedicated Jobs & Careers Pavilion, bringing thousands of professionals together with specialist security-related recruitment companies.
