NSI’s second Installer Summit held in Manchester on 20 November (the first in the North of England) proved to be a major success with over 100 delegates and 35 exhibitors in attendance.
The event showcased a wide array of top security brands, industry experts and business solutions providers in the impressive rooms of the prestigious Worsley Park Marriott Hotel. The summit offered delegates a perfect platform to learn about the latest innovations within the industry – including new products and solutions, equipment and tools – and of course the latest news from NSI.
The summit’s programme of bite-sized seminar sessions delivered by industry experts included: the importance of integrity and performance through the buying chain (CSL DualCom – Simon Banks); the value apprenticeships can bring to a business (Kings Security – Anthony King); the do’s and don’ts of social media (IFSEC Global – Tristan Norman); Google marketing (NVisage – Clinton Porter); employment law tips (Citation – Louise Lockett); funding for capital growth (Baker Tilly -Rob Donaldson); the myths of cloud security (RISCO – Steve Riley). In addition, an update from ACPO was delivered on the reduction of false alarms due to improving technology.
NSI Chief Executive, Richard Jenkins, commented:
“Following the success of the first NSI Installer Summit in Birmingham in March, we listened to our installers and brought the event to Manchester. The NSI Installer Summit is a truly unique event for our approved companies, providing them with the opportunity to network, get up close to the latest products from the leading manufacturers, hear first hand from NSI technical experts about developments in Standards and to be given business solution advice from a number of business-related specialists. We believe the Installer Summit adds real value to the NSI community ensuring NSI approved installers are well informed about developments that impact their industry and their businesses. With the exceptionally positive feedback we have received from both events, we are delighted to announce our next Installer Summit will take place in Birmingham on 10th March 2015 – save the date!”
