ISC West 2024 Grows Attendance, Offers Most Expansive Lineup Yet

With a commitment to elevating customer experience, ISC West continues to see its numbers grow year over year.

NORWALK, Conn. –  ISC West 2024, the nation’s leading comprehensive and converged security trade event, hosted in collaboration with premier sponsor the Security Industry Association (SIA), delivered another year of successful programming and welcomed more than 29,000 security industry professionals to The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. ISC West elevated the customer experience by hosting both fan-favorite and brand-new offerings throughout the four-day event, which featured over 750 exhibitors, over 220 speakers and over 110 education sessions covering the latest trends and solutions across the security industry. 

“This year, we were excited to continue to enhance the customer experience,” said ISC Event Vice President Mary Beth Shaughnessy. “From an additional 20,000 square feet on the show floor, approximately 100 more exhibiting brands, and events like the first-ever ISC West Concert featuring the Wallflowers, attendees had access to our most expansive lineup yet. This year’s resounding success is the result of so many individuals – exhibitors, attendees, speakers and partners. We’re already excited for 2025 and look forward to continuing to raise the level of engagement at future ISC Security events.” 

ISC West welcomed a swarm of security professionals from around the world. Attendees and exhibitors alike were able to see, learn and experience today’s biggest innovations in safety and security. Just as importantly, attendees had the opportunity to make impactful connections with their peers in the field. This year’s turnout continued to display year-over-year growth for general attendance, hosting over 19,000 attendees.

“ISC West 2024 was a resounding success, not just in the strong show attendance but also in the outstanding quality of SIA Education at ISC West programming, courses and offerings delivered,” said SIA CEO Don Erickson. “The strength of the security industry was richly evident in the innovations seen across the show floor and particularly visible in the SIA New Products & Solutions Awards entries. The many SIA meetings and special events that gathered the broader security industry together to connect on critical topics in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure protection, school security, technology standards and more elevated the ISC and SIA member experience. The 2024 show exemplified why our ISC West is the nation’s leading converged security event.”
