international conference, one of the most important policing and public safety
events in the world which will drive the agenda for positive change in global
security.

as the UK venue for this event cements our reputation as the natural home for world
events of scale and complexity. Once again, some of the most important
conversations of our time will be happening in our venue, and it’s a reminder
of the true value of conferences which drive societal, economic, and
environmental progress.”

international conference. As host city we’re looking forward to making the
international delegation welcome, and to supporting all stakeholders in
delivering a world-class event.”
