Your Operating Environment
88 Reasons To Attend:The Gulf of Guinea Security Summit is the culmination of Hanson Wade’s highly
successful and well respected Combating Piracy West African Maritime Security & Energy Infrastructure Security Summits, which have been influential in allowing the maritime, oil and energy sectors collaborate, network and share intelligence since 2010.
Make sure your security strategy protects against shifting tactics, the potential for post election violence and the latest danger hotspots
Government & Plenary Highlights: Designed for both on and offshore security leaders to join numerous government stakeholders from across West Africa to highlight current efforts in tackling regional security threats, along with the areas of support needed. This is your opportunity to communicate, collaborate and debate how to effectively operate in the region knowing the support available.
Combating Piracy Highlights: The 5th Year of Combating Piracy West Africa. Picking up where we left off last July, this stream will debate the very latest solutions to the challenge of tackling maritime crime and piracy in both territorial and international waters across West Africa. The constantly shifting nature of piracy and maritime crime makes it critical to stay ahead of trends in order to effectively protect your personnel and assets. You will receive practical and actionable intelligence to implement robust short, medium and long-term security strategies.
Infrastructure Security Highlights: With Boko Haram recently pledging allegiance to the Islamic State, the threat to onshore infrastructure and personnel both within Nigeria and its neighbouring states cannot be underestimated. As the closest fought Nigerian election in years approaches, the potential for a militant uprising in the Niger Delta could be imminent. Designed exclusively for organisations within the oil, gas, mining and energy industries, this streams focuses on countering threats specific to your area of operation. You will receive up-to-the-minute information on where your assets are most at risk, and how best to protect them from evolving security threats.
