Call for Proposals

Proposal Submission Deadline is Tuesday, 16 June 2009

Be a Speaker in Sydney!

You are invited to submit an abstract to be considered for presentation at the 4th ASIS International Asia-Pacific Conference to be held in Sydney, Australia on 1-3 February 2010. This is your opportunity to shape the programme by sharing your knowledge and expertise with other security professionals from around the globe. The conference will cover the entire spectrum of security topics ranging from supply chain security, loss prevention, and piracy to terrorism, executive protection, intellectual property rights, hotel security and more.

Sydney is a vibrant, dynamic and accessible metropolis waiting to be explored. It is a cosmopolitan city surrounded by iconic beaches, World Heritage sites, lush hinterland and the acclaimed wine regions of New South Wales. Sydney is the gateway to Australia, one of the world's most economically resilient, politically stable and globally competitive business locations, making it the perfect place for the ASIS International Security Conference.
