Intersec have wrapped up an exceptional three days of their 2025 Saudi Arabia show, uniting professionals from the security sector in a vibrant and forward-looking environment.
From 29 September - 1 October, the seventh edition of the show concluded with resounding success at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Centre (RICEC), reaffirming its status as the Kingdom's premier platform for security, safety, and fire protection innovation.
2025's Intersec Saudi Arabia welcomed over 27,000 visitors and featured 370+ exhibitors from over 35 countries, marking a 25% increase in exhibition size compared to 2024. Spanning across seven halls, and featuring a purpose-built outdoor area, the exhibition showcased cutting-edge solutions across five core sectors:
There were two CPD-certified summits that anchored Intersec Saudi Arabia's conference programme.
The Future Security Summit explored event protection, AI driven surveillance, and critical infrastructure security. Highlights of the summit included cross-border co-operation panels that addressed stability and transnational crime prevention.
The Fire Protection and Technology Summit delivered insights on sustainable fire safety, post-incident recovery, and climate-related challenges. A dedicated NFPA Day reflected on global fire tragedies including Grenfell, and introduced the NFPA Fire and Life Safety Echosystem.
Intersec Saudi Arabia 2025 introduced a key number of new features, including:
The British Security Industry Association (BSIA) played a pivotal role in Intersec Saudi Arabia 2025, hosting the UK Pavilion for leading British security and fire companies, and supporting with stand construction, marketing, and network opportunities. The UK Pavilion was centrally located, and the BSIA offered custom-built stands in partnership with Messe Frankfurt and GES Saudi Arabia. This ensured compliance with venue regulations and delivered polished and professional showcases for UK exhibitors.
Services included:
The BSIA's UK Pavilion centers on the core values of our association: educating global markets on UK security standards, products, and services, elevating member visibility through curated pavilion experiences, and evolving marketing practices to richer media and broader outreaches.
Intersec Saudi Arabia will be held at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Centre (RICEC) on 6-8 October 2026. Spaces are already available in the UK Pavilion, and are limited.
