Homeland Security News

Indesec Expo 2009, 11 – 13 October 2009, Location: Pragati Maidan, New Delhi – India’s only integrated homeland security and defence systems event – provides the opportunity for Indian and international companies to promote their solutions to Indian government officials from both the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Defence, paramilitary forces, senior members of the armed forces, security agency, individual state police and coast guard. Indesec’s three key areas of focus are homeland and border security, network centric operations, also known as Network Centric Warfare (NCW) or Network Enabled Capability (NEC) and maritime security.

Highlights:

• Growth Market: US $10 billion allocated for homeland security spend within the next two to three years coupled with the billions to be spent on the Indian armed forces’ forthcoming modernisation programme, makes India one of the key growth markets
• No Recession: The Indian Government has indicated no slowdown in homeland security & defence spend despite the global meltdown
• Easing Procurements: The Indian Government has stated that it is committed to removing bottlenecks and fast tracking homeland security equipment purchases by State and Central police forces
• Unique Platform: Indesec Expo 2009 – India’s only integrated homeland security and defence systems event, now in its 2nd edition, is focused on providing solutions to three key areas of defence including homeland and border security, network centric operations and maritime security
• Two Ministries with Two Budget Lines: Unlike other defence events, Indesec will be integrated to recognise the blurring of the edges between defence and homeland security, allowing visitors to see the latest technology from both, and exhibitors will have double opportunity to showcase products and services to two ministries with two separate budget lines
• Budget Holders and Influencers: In addition to Ministry representation, Indesec will attract the key decision makers from individual state police forces, paramilitary forces, anti terrorist and special forces, emergency and disaster relief forces, and corporates, all with separate budgets
• Meaningful Networking Opportunities: Meet the decision makers, influencers, end users from the Government Ministries, law enforcement agencies, Indian armed forces, corporate executives and a large number of the world’s leading homeland security & defence solution providers at one location
