URBAN SECURITY CHINA 2005 is Asia's largest and most important security event. This high level conference and exhibition is the meeting point for leaders from China's government and private sector as well as international decision makers, suppliers and buyers.

China's security market offers unparalleled opportunities to worldwide manufacturers, suppliers, dealers and service providers of security technologies, products and services.

In 2003, the China security market was valued at approximately $4 billion and is estimated to rise substantially between now and 2008. In anticipation of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and the astronomical growth of China's industries, the Beijing Municipal Government has launched the series of purchase programs committing $22 billion over the next five years to upgrade the city's infrastructure and security facility. URBAN SECURITY CHINA 2005 is a timely opportunity for suppliers of security technology, products and services to meet Chinese buyers.

Additionally, The United Nations has designated "Social Order and Public Security" as one of the essential criteria to measure the civilization and development level of China's urban areas. As a reflection of this mandate, China has instituted a "Safe Cities" initiative which has propelled rapid development of its urban security and safety market. This market offers a huge demand for counter-terrorism, anti-riot, law enforcement and emergency management technologies, products and services.
