The Northeast’s leading event for security and public safety concludes, maximizing experiential value for both attendees and exhibitors
NORWALK, Conn. – ISC East 2024, with its premier sponsor the Security Industry Association (SIA) and in partnership with the ASIS NYC Chapter, presented another year of dynamic programming as the Northeast’s leading security and public safety event. Over three days, ISC East showcased premier keynote speakers, educational sessions, professional development and over 200 exhibitors displaying the latest innovations in the field.
From Nov. 19 to Nov. 21, ISC East welcomed nearly 6,000 total security professionals to the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City. This year’s turnout continued to display year-over-year growth for general attendance, with more than 4,600 attendees. Adding to the success, the SIA Education@ISC East program achieved over 40% growth, underscoring the value of ISC East’s educational offerings.
“Both our attendees and exhibitors gather at ISC East to discover the industry’s latest products and solutions, cultivate professional relationships, and celebrate the biggest innovations in the world of security and public safety,” said ISC Event Vice President Mary Beth Shaughnessy. “Over the three-day event, we saw attendees who were eager to learn from industry experts and conduct business face-to-face with new and existing vendors, which all contributes to a maximized customer experience year after year.”
ISC East 2024 Highlights
SIA Education@ISC East
This year’s event executed the largest SIA Education@ISC East program yet, which doubled in size from last year with 70+ sessions and 150+ speakers – all carefully curated by the newly formed SIA Education@ISC Advisory Board. This team of industry experts provides critical guidance on the newest trends and most relevant technologies in the world of security to best inform show programming at ISC Security Events.
“The 2024 ISC East show was one of the best yet – boasting outstanding attendance as well as top-quality SIA Education at ISC East conference content, training courses and other offerings,” said SIA CEO Don Erickson. “Attendees at the show were able to see the most cutting-edge innovations in security, and the experience was further elevated by the highly engaging SIA meetings and special events that brought together our industry to explore essential topics in security interoperability, mobile credentials, the return on security and safeguarding our utilities and critical infrastructure, honor the exceptional work of SIA member leaders and volunteers and give back to the future of the security workforce. This year’s show highlighted why ISC East is the Northeast’s premier security and public safety event.”
