NEW ORLEANS — The eyes of the security industry will be focused on the Crescent City this year, with more than 15,000 security pros representing manufacturers, integrators, consultants and more expected to be in town for the 2025 edition of ASIS International’s Global Security Exchange (GSX) for the first time in 20 years.
With three days’ worth of opportunities to traverse the GSX 2025 trade show floor and five days of education sessions tied to this year’s event, not to mention countless after-hours (and even before-hours) networking events, you’ll have to schedule carefully to ensure you see it all in and around the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans.
“Not only is it the place where people come to find information, solutions, connect with their colleagues, talk about the situations that they’re trying to handle and have the opportunity to attend more than 200 educational sessions, but it’s never the same show every year, ”says Christine Peck, the chief global learning officer for ASIS International, which operates the show.
Among the new features of GSX 2025 is the translation of some sessions to more than 80 languages to accommodate visitors from more than 80 countries, says Peck. And, although other events across most industries have ditched their digital attendance option, the GSX digital show option has been going strong since 2017. “And [it] continues to grow,” she says.
“Even if you can’t be with us in person, we want to make you feel you’re getting what you need from the education and resources that we’re providing,” says Peck. “Our research helps us to figure out what are the problems and challenges our members are looking to solve year on year.”
The education sessions at GSX 2025, whittled down from more than 550 submissions, cover themes that any security industry professional will consider timely. These include the following:
- Crime
- Digital Transformation
- Information Security
- Law and Ethics
- Managing Organizations
- National Security
- Physical and Operational Security
- Professional Development and
- Risk Management
The event will also include ASIS Celebrates, a ticketed event at the World War II Museum on Tuesday, Sept. 30 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and a registration-required Women in Security and Next Gen happy hour on Monday, Sept. 29 from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the convention center.
Attendees can decide between an all-access pass — which includes all education sessions, all pre- and post-show events and everything the show floor has to offer — and show floor-only passes, which Peck says are “enormously popular.”
To keep everyone up to date on all the news and conversation leading up to GSX 2025, Security Sales & Integration has compiled this definitive hub for the topic.
We’ll be providing plenty of GSX 2025 news updates before, during and after the show, when digital editor Craig MacCormack will report on his experiences from the show floor. So be sure to check back in — or just bookmark this page — to keep up to date with all the happenings at GSX 2025.
We hope to see you at this year’s show!
