The SDM 100 Gala took place during the Electronic Security Expo (ESX) in Fort Worth, Texas. Now in its ninth year, ESX is an event that draws top decision-makers and influencers from among electronic security and life safety professionals.
ESX provided a blend of stimulating networking opportunities, peer-developed and peer-delivered educational sessions, thought-provoking business and industry presentations from the main stage, and next-generation products and services on the show floor. The Electronic Security Association and Central Station Alarm Association also held their general membership meetings and many committee meetings during ESX.
More than 40 sessions in five educational tracks were presented in the ESX conference program. Sharing his experience about the educational sessions, Greg Simmons, owner and vice president of sales for Las Vegas-based Eagle Sentry, commented, “As a proud CEDIA and ESA member, I think ESX has become a great learning experience for members on both sides of the systems integration world. It has become a must attend for me and my team.”
