80 UK companies attend London seminar to promote MEPLEX 2002 in Dubai

More than 80 leading British security agencies attended a 'Middle East Police and Law Exhibition & Conference' (MEPLEX) seminar held in London recently at the Department of Trade and Industry to promote the major event which takes place this October in Dubai.

The companies were invited to the seminar in order to promote the MEPLEX Trade Partners UK official subsidy. The event included presentations from the Association of Police and Public Security Suppliers; Trade Partners UK; Dubai's Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing and MEPLEX organisers.

The seminar also highlighted the region's continuous efforts towards securing the best in public safety and security, a priority highlighted with regional interior ministries, police departments and law enforcement agencies of the Middle East following last year's tragic events in New York.

Set to be the region's meeting platform designed specifically for government police & law enforcement agencies, MEPLEX will be held this October 6-9, 2002 under the patronage of H.H. General Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, UAE Defence Minister and Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police Department.

"The event provides a unique commercial opportunity for international law enforcement suppliers to meet with police and related government security agencies of the Middle East," says Nick Webb Director of Streamline Marketing, organisers of the event.

Held in the secure premises of The Dubai Police Academy, MEPLEX also has the support of Trade Partners UK; The Association of Police and Public Security Suppliers and the Defence Manufacturers Association (DMA).

"It is a unique event incorporating a conference, exhibition, live demonstrations and interactive workshops," added Nick Webb.

"The concept is to provide an interactive forum that allows regional security agencies and police forces to exchange information with experts on security issues in the conference, view the latest equipment and services in the exhibition, watch them being demonstrated and then test them during workshops with suppliers."

MEPLEX also has the support of SITO; the Centre for Conflict Resolution; Bradford University; Advanced Life Support - Europe and National Training Organisations.
