It has been two years or so since the last ISC West trade show, the biggest security show in the U.S. market. The coronavirus pandemic has caused a year’s worth of trade show cancellations, and the trend will continue for a while longer.
The absence of trade shows has been transformative for the security marketplace, among others, as companies implemented a variety of alternative approaches, with mixed results. We asked this week’s Expert Panel Roundtable: What impact has the cancellation of trade shows had on the security industry?
In the 1977 book, The Age of Uncertainty, author John Kenneth Galbraith wrote, “All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.”
Ambulance staff working on Christmas Day received homemade meals during their shift delivered to them by The Yew Tree Inn. The Odstock pub was hit by cancellations as families changed their festive plans but owner Gordon Morison and his staff were determined not to let any food go to waste. On Christmas Day, Gordon and his partner Emily and members of staff Matthew and Jay gave up their time to deliver 17 Christmas dinners to on-duty paramedics. Each contained a smoked salmon and cream cheese roulade, succulent turkey, Christmas pudding and mince pies. Meat was donated by Pritchetts Butchers while fish was supplied by Premier Fish Ltd in Downton.
