NEW DATES – NEW LOCATION FOR 2012

November 5th-7th, 2012. Our 7th Annual Homeland Security Professionals Conference is moving to Orlando, FL.

This year’s conference puts its emphasis on the partnership between the Public and Private sector that will be necessary if we are to confront the many threats from both criminal and terror networks over the next decade. The Department of Homeland Security realized the importance of this when Secretary Napolitano spoke to the chemical industry:

“Securing our nation’s chemical sector requires extensive collaboration with our private sector partners,” Napolitano said. “Flexible, practical and collaborative programs such as DHS’s National Infrastructure Protection Plan, the Chemical Sector Coordinating Council and CFATS play a key role in enhancing the security and resiliency of our nation’s chemical facilities and other critical infrastructure.”

Against an increasing background of the public’s involvement, such as New York City’s “See something, Say something”, how could Law Enforcement, Fire, Emergency Medical and Emergency management work more efficiently and effectively with the private sector to ensure better public safety for all? Some of the world’s greatest experts on the subject will be bringing their know-how to the fastest growing Annual Professional Conference dedicated to all aspects of Homeland Security.

With 6 to 8 exciting speakers over three days you will learn about:

  • Large Scale Public events security – How to protect hotels, stadiums, celebrations, and parades
  • Intelligence – How the private and public sectors can work together
  • Threats – Gang threats and new groups that could impact our way of life
  • Technologies to protect against crowd violence and to protect spectators
  • How Law Enforcement and other First Responders  can make the transition to the private sector
  • Financing Terrorism - How public and private sector can work together to effectively combat this threat
