MAN Commercial Protection were delighted to host the Midlands Forum on behalf of the BSIA.
The Forum proved to be a very popular event, with over 80 attendees across two days.
Day one was Security Officer Services day, chaired by Tony Cockcroft, BSIA’s SOS Chairman. Attended by representatives from over 20 security guarding providers, the day’s agenda covered a variety of topics. Speakers included Tracey Lilley from the SIA, Patrick Holdaway from City of London Police and Colin Duffy from HMRC.
Although a jam-packed schedule, there was still time for us to include an introduction to MAN and a demo of the courses we offer. Guests were then treated to lunch in the Training Academy.
Day 2 of the Forum was focused on Technical Services, with speakers discussing training, recruitment, AI and cybersecurity. BSIA Chief Commercial Officer Paddy Kyle also hosted an interactive panel discussion.
The MAN Commercial team thoroughly enjoyed hosting the event and the opportunity to network with our industry peers and meet some new contacts. It was a pleasure to work with our friends at the BSIA, who were delighted at the smooth running of the two days.
BSIA Chief Executive Mike Reddington said, “On behalf of the BSIA and our members I would like to thank the MAN Commercial team for kindly hosting our Midlands Forum event. It was very well received, with some excellent feedback from those who attended, not only from the content perspective but also the excellent hosting facilities that you provided. We look forward to continuing our positive relationship going forward.”
