Fire Protection & Technology Summit

The Fire Protection & Technology Summit will gather the most prominent fire and emergency service leaders from across the region to talk about the key challenges, opportunities, standards & policies and technology. This conference aims to create synergy and strengthen the collaboration between the authorities and the industries, making it a definitive networking platform, where new projects and partnerships are initiated and visionary objectives are implemented.

As KSA looks to improve nationwide fire safety and industrial security regulations, the Kingdom’s demand for fire prevention and safety implementation systems is forecast to continue its upward trajectory in the coming years.

KSA’s fire safety systems and equipment market – the largest in the GCC – is set to track 5.5% CAGR by 2025, reaching a cumulative value of $402 million. This tremendous growth is being driven in part by government regulation of compulsory installation of fire safety, detection, and alarm systems in buildings and the strengthening of the remit of Saudi Arabia’s High Commission for Industrial Security (HCIS).
