In this expert-led Security Buyer Live session, Wim van Winghe, Senior Vice President EMEA at Zenitel, explores the often-underestimated role of audio in security strategy. With a legacy dating back to 1901, Zenitel has evolved into a global leader in intelligent critical communication systems.
Wim shares insights on how audio technologies—when integrated with video and access control—can enhance situational awareness, improve user experience, and fill crucial gaps in environments where visual surveillance isn’t suitable. He also highlights key use cases in healthcare, defence, transportation, and industry, where intelligent audio is shaping the future of proactive, non-intrusive security.
With a focus on integration, regulation, and ethical innovation, Zenitel positions audio not as an afterthought, but as a core enabler of next-generation safety.
