Security Essen as the trade fair for civil security is expanding its range of products and services. It was announced that at Messe Essen that the topics of civil protection and civil defence will be added as a new focus from 2024.

The background to this is the current situation in politics, the environment and society and the resulting necessities. “At Security Essen, we not only depict the latest developments, but also integrate upcoming significant concerns of society with foresight,” explains Oliver P. Kuhrt, CEO of Messe Essen. “The topics of civil protection and civil defence are becoming increasingly important and it is no longer possible to imagine a security fair without them. Therefore, with the next Security Essen 2024, we will offer all players their own platform as well as a network for exchange, information and procurement.”
