Preview: Perimeter Protection 2023
Keeping visitors out is the exact opposite of what the organizers of Perimeter Protection 2023 want to achieve, but it lies at the heart of 130 exhibitors waiting to demonstrate their concepts, products and solutions at the exhibition center in Nuremberg from 17–19 January.
Postponed because of the pandemic in 2022, the early start of the biennial event in 2023 has been welcomed by an industry that is eager to make contact again with potential and existing truly international customers again. The event is multi-facetted, with booths, demonstration areas both inside and out and, of course, an accompanying forum giving an opportunity for professional exchange and expert discussion.
The complete palette of both temporary and permanent security measures is on show, from robust and intelligent fencing systems, vehicle access management devices, through access control and crowd control solutions. As well as all types of electronic alarms, external lighting, motion detection and video surveillance, there will also be all shapes and sizes of doors and gates on show, along with fencing to clearly mark out your ground.
U.T.Sec: Summit for Aerial Threats
The comparatively ‘new’ world of aerial threats will receive significant attention at the event through a special area called U.T.Sec ‑ a summit for drones, unmanned technologies and security ‑ that will be integrated into Perimeter Protection 2023. It will present security authorities of critical infrastructure, buildings and other sensitive areas all the latest technology involved in this fast-developing niche market of drone detection and defense, as well as the use of drones in security operations.
The specialist forum is being organized together with the Association for Security Technology (VfS), the UAV DACH and Curpas The latter was founded in 2016 and represents the suppliers of unmanned and autonomous systems for use on land, water and in the air.
How to get to Perimeter Protection Nuremberg
Road, rail, and air connections to Nuremberg (Nürnberg) are excellent.
Flights + Tram: Passengers on incoming flights to the Albrecht Dürer International Airport (NUE, EDDN) from many European cities are brought to the city’s main railway station by the U2 tram in just twelve minutes. From there, the U1 tram stops eight minutes later immediately outside the exhibition entrance.
Car: The A3, A6, A9 and A73 autobahns converge around Nuremberg from all compass points and there are more than enough parking spaces close to the exhibition grounds.
Hotel: The city is experienced in hosting large exhibitions and you can find all the facilities you need, also with regard to hotel accommodation, on the event’s own website at www.perimeter-protection.de.
Tickets: Tickets can be pre-booked here and, before attending the event, you should read the latest information about the necessary vaccinations here or on social media. Although restrictions have been lifted in open spaces, it is still necessary to wear a hygienic mask when traveling on public transport and in taxis.
So it’s off to Nuremberg shortly after Christmas for lots of interesting displays and discussions on that perennial subject of perimeter protection. Although the exhibition grounds will be bristling with equipment to keep people out, we are sure that the organizers will actually be very happy to welcome you in.
