Conference to focus on airport and maritime security

As investment in the UAE's aviation sector reaches to over Dh500 billion, and with eight growing international airports, security concerns are becoming increasingly critical.

The Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis, INEGMA, will be playing its part to meet the changing needs by expanding its major regional and international border security event which is organized under the joint patronage of the UAE Ministry of Defense and the Higher Committee for UAE Civil Seaports and Airport Security.

The Border Control, Airport and Seaport Security (BCASS) Conference and Exposition 2010 will be held on December 13-14, 2010 at Atlantis The Palm, Dubai. The event will be opened by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mubarak al Nahyan, Minister of Labour and the Chairman of the Higher Committee for UAE Civil Seaports and Airport Security, and a senior representative of the UAE Ministry of Defense.

The event will feature high level speakers from the UAE and worldwide.
