IFSEC is facing competition.

Led by an ex-IFSEC head, partnered with mega-exhibitor Essen and hosted in IFSEC's old city, Birmingham, "The Security Event" in UK will launch in April 2019, the same week as ISC West.

In this note, based on a conversation with the Event's Founding Partner, Tristan Norman, we examine the strengths and challenges of this new exhibition.
