The SAFE South India expo came to security professionals at a time when the government showed its commitment to enhance its security budget by as much as 35 per cent, whichincluded creating a dedicated homeland security department, developing coordinated intelligence gathering, protecting critical infrastructure and upgrading maritime security.



Speaking on the successful completion of 'Security and Fire Expo (SAFE) - South India 2017' , Mr. Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, UBM India said, "Today, security and surveillance requires rapid growth amidst the constantly changing/upgrading technology and increasing industrial and residential establishments. There is an ever-growing threat to the economy, financial sector, key government departments and infrastructure set-ups, which in turn leaves internal security at risk. Implementing and highlighting the significance of this sector has become essential which in turn gives vast opportunity to manufacturers, suppliers and service providers from across the world to showcase their product and solution offerings. In just its 3rd edition, SAFE South India brought out to the forefront this need and in response by offering a wealth of innovative products and IT solutions to the south market which is an important business hub for commercial and homeland security in India."
