ASIS International Middle East to hold annual Conference and Exhibition in Bahrain

The choice of Bahrain as host for this important event reflects the Kingdom's long-established international reputation for safety and security and its historical ties with ASIS International which, with more than 33,000 members, is the largest international organisation for professionals responsible for security. This year's annual conference sees the renewal of a tradition whereby ASIS held this event in Bahrain for 20 consecutive years until 2000.

The event will provide a vital opportunity for all those concerned with security to better understand the current issues and to identify solutions. Managers and directors of security, corporate executives, management personnel, consultants, architects, attorneys and law enforcement officers will have the opportunity to address industrial security issues that not only affect individual businesses but also have implications for the wider economy of the GCC region. Specialised scientific lectures and workshops on the latest developments in the field of security will be presented by international researchers and distinguished speakers.

The conference will be complemented by an exhibition where expert companies will display the latest developments in security equipment and state-of-the-art technologies.

ASIS International is dedicated to increasing the effectiveness and productivity of security practices by developing educational programmes and materials that address broad security concerns, such as the ASIS Annual Seminar and Exhibits, as well as specific security topics. By providing members and the security community with access to a full range of programmes and services, and by publishing the only monthly magazine focused specifically on the issues and concerns of security management, ASIS leads the way for advanced and improved security performance.

ASIS International is a non-profit society dedicated to preserving security in order to maintain human well-being. The Society's goal is to develop awareness of security issues and solutions for the protection and preservation of industrial and non-industrial assets. The Society was founded in Alexandria, Virginia, USA and currently has more than 250 branches around the world.

Elegant Training WLL and Bahrain Convention & Exhibition Bureau (BCEB) are delighted to promote and organise this significant event that will benefit not only the safety and security of the people of the Kingdom of Bahrain and GCC states but also that of the wider international community.
