Over the past few days, I’ve sent out hundreds of personal invitations to my contacts to attend iSECURITY, a free virtual trade show being produced by SDM & SECURITY magazines, on Wednesday, August 25. (www.isecuritytradeshow.com)

I would have liked to reach out to more people personally, but because I don’t have your e-mail address, please consider this your personal invitation to join us at iSECURITY.

 

If you’ve never “attended” a virtual event before, it is well worth the time spent. All you need is an Internet-connected computer and you’re there – no airplanes or hotels, no convention center food. You can log on and off as your schedule permits throughout the day.

 

iSECURITY features an exhibit area, a conference program with six live webinars, a resource center, a prize center, and a virtual networking lounge where scheduled discussions will take place. Webinar topics include:

 

SDM 100: Strategies for Growth in a Recovering Economy (speakers: Joe Nuccio of ASG Security and Alex Dunn of APX Alarm). Time presented: 9:30 a.m. – 10:15 a.m. EDT

 

The PERS/Security Connection (speakers: Stan Tresslar of Safeguard Security and Brad Tolliver of Per Mar Security). Time presented: 12:30 p.m. – 1:15 p.m. EDT

 

NICET Changed Fire Alarm Testing: Are You Ready? (speaker: Charles Aulner of National Training Center). Time presented: 3:30 p.m. – 4:15 p.m. EDT

 

In addition, Barnes Associates partner Mark Gronowski will be available for Q&A in the Networking Lounge. He will take questions on the Current State of Mergers and Acquisitions in the Security Industry, and Market Valuations of Security Companies. This will take place between 2:30 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.

 

iSECURITY is free, however, you do need to register in advance. Please visit www.isecuritytradeshow.com to register.

 

Feel free to pass along this invitation to your colleagues and customers who may also be interested in attending iSECURITY. We hope to “see you” there.
