We’ve just wrapped up another fantastic CoESS Annual General Assembly in Brussels – a big thank you to all our members from across Europe for joining us in such important times for the security industry. From the revision of the EU Public Procurement Directive to future skills, labour shortages and preparedness, one message was clear: private security services are more vital than ever for public security and Europe’s resilience and crisis planning. We also saw how AI, questions of cybersecurity and the evolving security landscape in Europe are reshaping our sector – and why the exchange between CoESS and the European Commission can make an important contribution to preparedness and crisis response planning. A special thanks to our fantastic speaker panel Tibo Demoor Yannick De Smet Jean-Philippe BERILLON and Jacob Jeppesen from the European Commission for deep insights and recommendations for the way ahead in the EU Preparedness Union. One thing is sure: we need more public-private collaboration to be prepared for the very real existing and future threat scenarios we see unfold across Europe. As always, the AGM is a moment to reflect – and to start today on the work for tomorrow. There’s much ahead, and together with our members we’re ready. #privatesecurity #securityservices #essentialservices #preparedness Säkerhetsföretagen Arxia BDSW BUNDESVERBAND DER SICHERHEITSWIRTSCHAFT GES - Sécurité Privée APROSER – Asociación Profesional de Compañias Privadas de Servicios de Seguridad Asociatia Romana a Industriei de Securitate/Romanian Security Industry Association de Nederlandse Veiligheidsbranche FederSicurezza VSSU / AESS / AISS / ASSC AES - Associação de Empresas de Segurança MPSA GÜSOD British Security Industry Association (BSIA) & Estonian Security Association
