Attended by approximately 1000 security professionals, government institutions and researchers from all over the world, SRC’10 is part of the actions undertaken in the FP7 European Security Research Programme, aiming at the development of knowledge and new technologies to improve the security of European citizens while enforcing the competitiveness of Europe’s economy.

Supported by the European Security Innovation Network, LSEC, Systematic Paris Region, SITC and TeleTrusT, will actively participate to this year’s SRC and further facilitate the development of commercial and research projects amongst its Members, with enterprises and governments.

SRC’10 will showcase the importance of security research for citizens in view of the research agenda beyond FP7 and the 2020 perspective. Leading experts will give their view on the consequences and opportunities for security research following the Lisbon Treaty and facing new global security challenges. Special attention will be given to presentations of successful FP7 projects in the diverse security fields, involving in particular users and SME’s. A brokerage event and an exhibition will facilitate networking between companies, scientific experts, operators and policy makers from Member States Associated states and Third Countries.
