What is S&P

The official UK Government global security event.

Security & Policing is the only UK event of its kind to receive official Home Office accreditation. Held each March at the Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, it convenes the UK security community, policing, government departments, intelligence, military, critical national infrastructure operators and industry, inside a unique, closed and vetted environment.

Over three days, more than 400 world-class suppliers exhibit alongside live immersive experiences, a high-level speaker programme and dedicated zones for innovation, international engagement and ministerial dialogue. Attendance is by Home Office approval only, enabling open and trusted conversations that are not possible at any other security event.

In 2025 the UK security and resilience sector reported £27.6bn in turnover and £14.5bn in value add to the UK economy. S&P plays a central role in connecting that sector with government buyers and international markets.

Case study

Vietnamese delegation

Home Office International Operations (HOIO) secured a senior Vietnamese delegation led by the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Public Security, the first time a Vietnamese Minister has attended S&P.

The delegation met Policing Minister Sarah Jones MP and Shaun Hipgrave, Director National Security Protect and Prepare. In line with delivering a dedicated S&P experience, JSaRC designed a tailored exhibitor programme to match their key capability requirements and strategic priorities, including two bespoke off site visits to HMP Norwich and a London Fire Brigade station. JSaRC has since facilitated a series of post S&P follow up engagements to support the delegation pursue commercial leads with key exhibitors.

Watch · City Watch, Immersive Experience 2025

City Watch, the 2025 scenario, put participants at the heart of a fast-moving urban security incident, demonstrating how intelligence, surveillance and frontline response combine to protect the public in a complex city environment.

"Private sector innovation is delivering public sector outcomes; to protect the public and bring criminals to account."
