This autumn, Advancis Austria is preparing for one of its busiest exhibition seasons yet, with a series of appearances at major security events across Central, Eastern, and Southern Europe. More than just a showcase of products, the company’s program underlines the growing importance of its people and partnerships, within its own team and with trusted technology and regional allies.

SecuriForum Hungary

The first stop will be SecuriForum in Hungary, where Advancis once again joins forces with technology partner Commend. The collaboration between the two companies is long-standing, and the Budapest event will highlight how communication solutions and integration platforms complement one another. For visitors, it is not only a chance to see WinGuard and Commend solutions in action, but also to meet the specialists behind them, who are ready to discuss practical applications in real projects.

Adria Security Summit

The season’s centerpiece follows at the Adria Security Summit in Skopje. Here, Advancis Austria will step into the spotlight as a Diamond Sponsor for the first time, supported by its largest team to date at the Summit. The delegation includes Sergej Piculin, Nikolai Landa, and Slavoljub Stevanovic, who will represent the Austrian team on site. They will be joined by Oliver Lacey from the UK, contributing his expertise on AIM (Advanced Identity Manager). Advancis will not only host a busy stand but also deliver a keynote on “Living and Working in a Big Data World.” The topic resonates widely, as organizations across the region grapple with how to make sense of ever-growing volumes of data. Alongside the keynote, the team will host several side events and workshops devoted to WinGuard and AIM, offering visitors a chance to explore in detail how modular integration and identity management can create value in complex environments.

“Being present with a larger group is important,” notes Sergej Piculin, Sales & Business Development Manager in Southeastern Europe. “It allows us to reflect the diversity of expertise we have, and it gives visitors more opportunities to connect with the right people.” This perspective highlights Advancis Austria’s emphasis on partnerships at every level – within its team, with technology providers, and with clients across the region.

Romanian Security Summit

Next on the calendar is the inaugural Romanian Security Summit, where Advancis sees an opportunity to engage with a developing but dynamic market. For the Austrian team, the debut event is as much about listening as it is about presenting – understanding the needs of local integrators and end users will be key to building lasting partnerships.

Sicurezza Milan

Finally, Advancis Austria will round off the season at Sicurezza in Milan, one of Europe’s leading trade fairs. There, the Austrian team will meet international partners and clients, reinforcing ties that reach beyond national borders. The event serves as both a stage for technological innovation and a meeting point for long-term cooperation. Advancis will be joined again by its Italian system partner Microlab, presenting together how close collaboration can optimize security solutions and deliver lasting value for users. Altogether, these appearances mark a step forward for Advancis Austria. By fielding larger, more diverse teams and actively contributing to conference programs, the company shows that its strength lies not only in technology but also in the people who represent it. As these events unfold, the company demonstrates that its future in the region will be shaped just as much by human connections and strong collaborations as by technical innovation.

The evolution of the built environment toward greater environmental sustainability, higher energy efficiency, and improved living quality is now at the core of European policy. The transposition of the EPBD IV Directive (Energy Performance of Buildings Directive IV), together with the Renovation Wave — the EU strategy aimed at promoting the redevelopment and energy efficiency of buildings — forms the foundation for a structural transformation of the sector. The coming years will be crucial for the relaunch and renewal of the building stock not only in Italy but throughout Europe.

Within this context, Fiera Milano presents the 2025 edition of MIBA – Milan International Building Alliance, the format that, starting on November 19, will once again bring together four trade shows offering a holistic vision encompassing materials, technologies, solutions, and systems for the evolution of buildings and cities. GEE – Global Elevator Exhibition (vertical and horizontal mobility), MADE expo (construction and architecture), SMART BUILDING EXPO (technological integration), and SICUREZZA (security & fire) present impressive figures: more than 1,250 companies from 38 countries, eight exhibition halls, and significant international presence, accounting for 28% of total exhibitors. The most represented countries include Germany, Spain, Poland, France — Europe’s major producers — and China, confirming the global reach of the event.

A strong focus is placed on training and professional development, with over 100 sessions dedicated to the major challenges shared by all four markets: sustainability, digitalization, security, and artificial intelligence applications.

“MIBA is the result of a growth path that has united markets and exhibitions that were once separate, creating a system capable of transforming technological innovation and professional know-how into concrete business opportunities,” explains Paola Sarco, CEO of Made Eventi and Head of Building & Industry Exhibitions at Fiera Milano. “With over 1,250 companies, increasingly international and representative, MIBA offers a unique platform where numbers, projects, and ideas translate into real solutions for sustainable building and urban regeneration. Today more than ever, integration is the key to meeting the challenge of sustainability and leading the evolution of living spaces”.

Sustainable Construction: €20 billion in opportunities for the european market

GEE – Global Elevator Exhibition, Made expo, SBE – Smart Building Expo and SICUREZZA return together to represent the entire building supply chain: 8 halls, over 1,250 companies and more than 100 events. The Third MIBA Observatory, produced by the Politecnico di Milano, was presented: between 2025 and 2027, New European Bauhaus projects will mobilize more than €20 billion across Europe, €2.5 billion of which in Italy. Sustainability, digitalization, security and AI are the key themes driving market development and the focus of all training programs.

The Romanian Security Summit 2025 powered by Intersec is entering its final preparation phase. Organizers are inviting all interested companies to seize the last opportunity to register for sponsorship packages and exhibition space, as registrations will soon close.

More than 70 percent of the exhibition area has already been sold, and the list of exhibitors confirms a strong mix of leading international and regional companies that will showcase their innovative security solutions in Bucharest. The high level of industry interest is also reflected in over 1,000 registered participants to date.

This year’s exhibition layout features a specially designed floor plan that ensures maximum visibility for exhibitors and easy access for visitors, creating a dynamic and efficient environment for B2B meetings.

The Romanian Security Summit will take place on November 5–6 at the Romexpo Exhibition Center, serving as a key regional platform for the exchange of knowledge, innovation, and business opportunities within the security industry.

“The tremendous interest from exhibitors and participants is the best confirmation that the security industry recognizes the importance of this event. Our goal is to make the Romanian Security Summit a place where global brands and local institutions meet to shape the security standards of the future. Now is the right time for companies that want to be part of this event to secure their spot,” said Mircea Ciordaș, President of the Romanian Association for Security Technology (ARTS).

The Summit will also feature a comprehensive conference program with renowned speakers presenting strategic topics and technological trends shaping the future of security.

Registrations can be completed through the official website www.romaniansecuritysummit.com, though the number of available spots is limited.

Organizers emphasize that early registration provides companies with additional promotional benefits and improved visibility across the event’s official communication channels.

The Romanian Security Summit is jointly organized by the professional magazine a&s Adria and the Romanian Association for Security Technology (ARTS), with strong institutional and international support.

The opening day of the 10th anniversary Adria Security Summit was marked by strong messages from organizers and partners, underlining the importance of cooperation, knowledge exchange, and joint action in the security industry.

Mahir Hodžić

Chairman of the Organizing Committee, Mahir Hodžić, emphasized that shared vision, collaboration, and innovation are the key drivers of new value in the industry. “These days, Skopje has become the regional hub of the security sector — a place where innovations and best practices are presented, while B2B meetings create new partnerships. I especially thank the presidents of professional chambers across the region for their support, which gives this event additional credibility,” Hodžić stated, also inviting industry representatives to attend the upcoming Romanian Security Summit in Bucharest.

Panče Toškovski

Panče Toškovski, Minister of Interior of North Macedonia, highlighted the importance of joint efforts in today’s security environment. “We live in a time of new challenges for the security sector, which is why events like this are of vital importance. They represent a bridge between the private and public sectors, a place where we meet and build a safer society together,” he said.

Verica Mileska Stefanovska

President of the Chamber for Private Security of North Macedonia, Verica Mileska Stefanovska, expressed her satisfaction that Skopje is hosting this year’s Summit: “We must work together for better responses to modern security challenges. Take the opportunity over the next two days to connect, network, and contribute to greater overall security,” she noted.

Leo Levit, Chairman of the ONVIF Steering Committee, stressed the global relevance of the Summit: “This is the right platform where experts from across the region come together. Such events play a crucial role in strengthening cooperation and sharing knowledge. ONVIF works along the same path — creating a global platform that enables vendors to collaborate and contribute to a safer and more connected society,” Levit said.

Alongside the exhibition area, Adria Security Summit 2025 also features a rich conference program with expert panels, lectures, and presentations from leading international and regional specialists. A major innovation this year is the launch of Adria Smart City, a new platform running in parallel with the Summit, dedicated to smart technology solutions for urban management.
