ASIS ACT invites members and guests to a Mini Trade Show and Presentation Session on "Security in Facilities of Mass Gatherings" in Canberra. In addition to exhibits of the latest products, the event provides great networking opportunities.

A presentation on "Security in Facilities of Mass Gatherings" is timely in the current security environment with Australia's current threat level recently increased to "HIGH." ASIS ACT is pleased to welcome Mr Brendan Paterson CPP to guide participants in developing and employing security strategies at facilities where large numbers of people regularly congregate. 

Brendan is currently with Westfield and has first hand knowledge of risk and mass gatherings over 20 years. Recently he has developed emergency response protocols for the Westfield retail environment for risks associated with active shooter, terrorism and suicide prevention. He also has experience with major sporting codes in risk management.

There is no charge for attending this event. RSVP is essential for catering purposes by email: eventsact@asisact.org.au
