Dear Colleagues,

I look forward to welcoming you to our 6th Annual Government Security Conference, taking place on 23rd April at the Voco Grand Central Hotel, Glasgow. I am delighted that we will be hosting the event outside London. 

The Annual Government Security Conference is the flagship event for the Security Function and Profession, and provides a great opportunity for us to get together and to explore important topics, learn from each other and share successes. 

This year, we will be exploring the theme: ‘Collaborating and Integrating Government Security’. All our best work is the result of effective collaboration and integration between individuals, teams and organisations. We are most effective when we collectively bear down on security risks across government and ensure we are more than the sum of our parts.

The day will close with our Annual Awards Reception, celebrating the exceptional work of colleagues and teams from across the Profession, followed by an informal networking event. I am looking forward to a productive and engaging day. So I do hope that you and your teams can join us, either in person or remotely.

Thank you for your continued efforts and support this year. I look forward to meeting many of you at the event.

Vincent Devine

Government Chief Security Officer
