UAE to Showcase Security Solutions at SNSR
As part of the recently announced ‘UAE-Saudi Strategy of Resolve’, the two countries are creating a distinctive model of strategic partnerships in the Arab region and will be cooperating in projects encompassing various fields. The partnership has been designed to protect the two nations’ interests and create opportunities in response to regional geopolitical shifts.
Announced at the inaugural meeting of the Saudi-Emirati Cooperation Council in June, the plan identified three main axes of cooperation for the two nations’ shared vision of the future: the economic axis, the human and knowledge axis, and the political and security axis.
This joint focus on security is underlined by the UAE’s participation in the upcoming Saudi National Security and Risk Prevention (SNSR) Expo set to take place in Riyadh from November 4 to 6, under the patronage and presence of HRH Prince Abdul Aziz bin Saud bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the Minister of Interior of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The participation of Emirati firms in the expo is expected to enhance the security cooperation between the UAE and Saudi Arabia by facilitating the exchange of security expertise and showcasing the latest developments in the security industry provided by more than 30 of the UAE’s most prominent companies specialised in national security-related products and services, including armoured vehicles, aerospace, ammunition systems, naval vessels, telecommunications, maintenance and repair operations, cybersecurity, logistical support, and technical development.
Major General Abdulrahman Al Husayni, Civil Defense’s assistant director-general for safety, said: "As national security represents a top priority for the Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, represented by the Ministry of Interior (MOI), actively looks to attract international companies, which are interested in investing in potential future projects and provide innovative security solutions to enhance the security sector. The strong interest exhibited by companies in participating in this important event and discussing future projects reflects these efforts.”
One of the main topics that will be discussed at the expo is the role of disruptive innovation in national security. Plus, the SNSR Innovation Awards will be open to all exhibitors and is the perfect platform that aims to find disruptive technologies that strengthen national security with the goal of reshaping how Saudi governments, entrepreneurs, and industry experts work together to find cutting-edge solutions for current and future security threats. Nominees will be selected by a committee of industry experts representing prestigious organisations and will be led by the Saudi MOI.
