UAE a Fast Growing Market for Security Services

DUBAI - The UAE is one of the fastest growing markets for safety and security services and related business, according to experts at the Intersec Trade Fair and Conference 2009.

His Highness Shaikh Majid bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority, inaugurated the three-day conference at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre on Sunday.

Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a leader in product safety and certification, announced that it was considering opening an office in the Middle East in the current financial year, to make most of the region’s growth.

R.A. Venkitachalam, vice-president and managing director, UL Emerging Markets, said: “The Middle East, especially Saudi Arabia and UAE, has been the fastest growing markets in the region. There is a greater need to ensure safer living and working environments, which is where UL steps in.

“Our new office in the region will keenly support customers, asset owners and regulators to ensure that safety practices and procedures function smoothly in the region.”

The new facility will address the fire safety and security market and will concurrently address the other needs of the manufacturing industry in the Gulf, especially air-conditioning, power and control.

Elizabeth Brehl, managing director of Epoc Messe Frankfurt, exhibition organisers, said: “Intersec is the largest and most comprehensive event of its kind in the world outside Europe. The Dubai event spreads over eight halls covering 420,000 square feet with 700 exhibitors from 50 countries displaying their products.”

She noted that the three-day event is likely to result in business for all participating exhibitors. “We are anticipating an attendance in excess of 20,000 trade visitors from 100 countries, based on the feedback from our pre-registered visitors.”

On Monday, 65 international speakers will discuss security, safety, terrorism and other subjects.
