Why it matters

As Africa's largest integrated security and safety trade platform, Securex South Africa is the primary annual procurement and sourcing event for the continent's protection sector, attracting buyers with active purchasing mandates across security, OHS, facilities and fire. For defence-adjacent suppliers — particularly in physical security, surveillance, access control, cyber, and critical-infrastructure protection — it offers direct access to a concentrated pool of African end-users, system integrators, and distributors in a single venue. The free visitor model and cross-sector co-location maximise buyer footfall and deal-making density relative to cost of participation.

About

Securex South Africa is Africa's premier annual security, safety, facilities management and fire protection trade exhibition, held at the Gallagher Convention Centre in Johannesburg. The event co-locates four shows — Securex South Africa, A-OSH Expo, Facilities Management Expo, and Firexpo — under a single free-to-attend visitor badge, creating an integrated marketplace for the protection industry. It covers electronic security, access control, surveillance, cybersecurity, occupational health and safety, smart building technologies, fire detection and suppression. Free-to-attend seminar theatres, live product demonstrations, and industry association programming run across all four shows throughout the three-day event.

Security Exhibition & Conference

Sydney / Australia

As the premier security marketplace in the Asia-Pacific region, this event is the primary venue for global security suppliers to launch products into the Australian market and engage directly with integrators, consultants, government buyers, and critical-infrastructure end users.

For SMEs and startups, it is the most cost-efficient route to the Australian security procurement community, with free visitor registration and a sold-out floor plan signalling strong buyer intent.

China (Xi'an) Advanced Manufacturing and Digital Industry Expo & Defense Science and Technology Industry Expo

Xi'an / China

Xi'an hosts China's densest concentration of state-owned defense primes and research institutes, making this expo one of the few accessible venues in western China where suppliers can engage directly with aerospace, ordnance, and defense-electronics procurement chains. For SMEs and dual-use technology firms, the military-civil integration forums and project roadshow sessions provide structured pathways into PLA and state-enterprise supply chains. The event's scale — targeting 50,000+ professional visitors and 1,500+ exhibitors — and its government guidance from provincial defense-industry authorities signal genuine procurement and partnership intent rather than a purely promotional showcase.
