SIA Offers Networking Opportunity With Australian Delegation
Sep 4, 2007 4:35 PM
The Security Industry Association (SIA) announced it will co-host a Sept. 18 reception at the Australian Embassy in Washington, D.C. for SIA members to network with a visiting delegation of leading-edge Australian security companies. The 4:30 -- 8:00 p.m. event is available to the first 30 SIA members who register.
"SIA is continuing its efforts to present international market opportunities for our members," says Richard Chace, executive director and CEO, The Security Industry Association. "We view this networking event as the beginning of a new relationship with these companies as well as the Australian Security Industry Association."
The delegation is visiting the United States to explore partnership opportunities, create new distribution channels and the possible sale of intellectual property. Technologies represented by these companies range from facial recognition software to secure key control technology to computer forensic investigation software.
At the event, Richard Chace, SIA's executive director and CEO, will welcome the companies; Shayne Bates of Koffel and Associates will deliver a brief presentation focusing on the differences between doing business in the United States and Australia; and Mark Visbal, SIA's director of Research and Technology, will discuss major U.S. technology trends. Following these brief presentations and a Q&A session, participants will enjoy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres while networking in the embassy's ballroom.
The week following the reception, the same companies will participate in the Australian Pavilion at the ASIS conference in Las Vegas. If you will be at the conference, please visit the Pavilion. To register or learn more about the delegation contact Mark Visbal at 703-647-8487 or mvisbal@siaonline.org.
