Instead of its originally scheduled late-September timeslot, Secutech Vietnam will now take place at a future date. The postponement is due to recurring outbreaks of COVID-19 across Vietnam, as well as travel restrictions and periodic lockdowns.
The rearranged fair will take place at the Friendship Cultural Palace in Hanoi, with the new dates to be announced in due course. “Given the current situation in Vietnam, this step is in the best interest of all parties,” says Ms Regina Tsai, General Manager, Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd – Taiwan Branch.
Spurring more activity
“In close contact with the exhibition venue, and in consultation with key stakeholders groups, we are working to find an appropriate timeslot for the fair to return as soon as it’s feasible. In the meantime, we would like to thank the safety and security community for their continued support.”
The organisers are therefore focusing their attention on maximising opportunities for business
As the government’s vaccine programme has recently been rolled out, the local economy is expected to rebound, spurring more activity in the safety and security sectors. The organisers are therefore focusing their attention on maximising opportunities for business and networking, with a particular focus on the northern market.
Important basic needs
The rescheduled fair will be held in Hanoi for the first time since 2016, allowing exhibitors to connect with more project owners and system integrators from the north of the country. Safety and security are increasingly important basic needs and, therefore, stand for a growing global market.
With twelve trade fairs, congresses and forums around the world, Messe Frankfurt brings together demand and supply worldwide with progressive, connected products, applications and services focusing on commercial security and the protection of buildings, spaces and people. The safety, security & fire business cluster offers access to the dynamic markets of the Arabian Peninsula, Asia, Europe and South America.
