NSI experts are preparing to share important standards updates with professional installers and integrators throughout the three days.
Taking place on 5-7 April 2022 at the NEC Birmingham, the event will bring together over 200 exhibitors, providing an ideal opportunity for the industry to connect and keep up to date with the very latest technologies, products, services and insights.
NSI CEO Richard Jenkins commented: “We are delighted to be partnering with The Security Event again in what promises to be a lively and informative three days where visitors can experience innovative technology first hand, learn from educational content, share insights and network.
“Significant changes are taking place within the UK’s security sector, from the digital All IP migration to revisions in visual alarm confirmation and the evolving cyber security environment. Whether installers are looking to take first steps into gaining Third Party Certification or wish to meet our team for expert guidance on the standards, all are invited to visit our stand.
“Buyers of security and fire safety services are also actively encouraged to come and learn more about the importance of choosing NSI approved companies and the reassurance provided by the ongoing audit programme they commit to.”
