Throughout the exhibition, clear momentum was visible across both AI-enabled security technologies and advanced fire protection systems, underscoring the industry’s shift toward more integrated and intelligence-driven approaches to safety. “This year’s edition reflects the significant shifts taking place across Asia’s security and fire protection industries. We are seeing stronger demand for deployable AI systems, intelligent building solutions, advanced fire detection, and specialised safety equipment. At the same time, stricter regulatory requirements and infrastructure expansion are shaping purchasing priorities across the region and worldwide. Secutech brings together technology developers, public authorities, and infrastructure operators in a focused setting where practical solutions can be evaluated, partnerships formed, and new standards of safety performance advanced,” said Ms Regina Tsai, General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd – Taiwan Branch.
This year’s highlights included AI decision platforms designed to enhance operational response, weather-proof electromagnetic locks engineered for demanding outdoor environments, palm vein door detectors for secure access control, and aspirating smoke detectors designed for data centres needing highly sensitive early fire detection. Across seven key zones covering AIoT security, smart buildings, industrial safety, fire prevention, and disaster response, the fair demonstrated the convergence of software intelligence, hardware engineering, and frontline protection.
As AI driven analytics and edge computing move into broader deployment, exhibitors at Secutech highlighted the increasing focus on system integration, cost efficiency, and regional collaboration within the industry:
“We continue to attract strong interest from government representatives and major contractors involved in public infrastructure development. This year, we also welcomed buyers from Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand, reflecting growing regional demand for advanced integrated solutions. We also benefit from the organiser’s international outreach, which supports our engagement with partners beyond the local market. Looking ahead, we expect AI development to drive a gradual shift from centralised cloud infrastructure toward edge computing, as intelligent processing moves closer to the endpoint.”
Mr Jefferey Lee, General Manager, 3S System Tech Inc
“Video systems were once viewed primarily as surveillance tools, but advances in AI and distributed computing have significantly expanded their role within organisations. Today, video has moved beyond simple monitoring and become a source of actionable insight for businesses. In response, we have evolved into an enterprise operating system that unifies streams and enables AI driven analytics through open integration. Having participated in Secutech for more than a decade, we value the exhibition as a concentrated platform for engaging system integrators, partners and decision makers, and this year we further strengthened our regional connections across Asia Pacific.”
Mr Jason Lee, Platform Manager, Network Optix APAC
While digital transformation continues to accelerate, rising regulatory expectations and stricter safety requirements are driving demand for advanced fire detection systems and specialised rescue equipment across public infrastructure and industrial environments:
“Our focus is entirely on breathing apparatus for firefighters and rescue professionals. Most visitors to our booth are government agencies, particularly fire departments and national authorities, and this year we also welcomed international representatives from markets such as Japan and the Philippines. As some of our equipment is deployed by high level units, distribution and service support must be handled with precision and professionalism. Secutech provides us with an important opportunity to demonstrate our technology directly and connect with the right partners in a focused industry setting.”
Mr Tony Chou, Chief Technology Officer, Interspiro
“The fire detection and early warning market continues to grow steadily as application scenarios expand across different industries. Secutech brings together a highly concentrated and professional audience, making it an effective venue for engaging with partners and customers. It also allows us to promote greater awareness of early warning technologies and demonstrate how these systems can be implemented across various environments to enhance safety standards. Through continued dialogue with industry stakeholders, we aim to support broader adoption in Taiwan and overseas.”
Mr Jim Chen, General Manager, AVA Prevent
Beyond exhibitor participation, international buyers emphasised the exhibition’s role in facilitating direct engagement with technology providers, particularly in areas such as AI deployment, regulatory compliance, and urban security development. For many, Secutech offered a focused setting to identify qualified partners and evaluate solutions aligned with their domestic market needs:
“Thailand continues to see strong demand for security solutions, particularly in urban safety and infrastructure protection. We visited Taiwan to identify advanced technologies that can support tourism security, smart city development, and integrated urban systems. At Secutech, we have been impressed by the quality and R&D capabilities of Taiwanese companies, especially in AI driven analytics, edge computing, and cloud-based management platforms. We have already held productive discussions with several exhibitors and identified potential partners for future collaboration. As Southeast Asia continues to expand, we see significant opportunities for closer cooperation between Taiwanese manufacturers and our market.”
Mr Taweechai Yang, President, Thai Security Association
“India’s new Standardisation Testing & Quality Certification (STQC) Directorate, which came into effect in April, mandates strict source code disclosure, quality testing, and regulatory compliance. I am attending Secutech specifically to identify Taiwan manufacturers who can meet these requirements. I have already held fruitful meetings with CCTV suppliers committed to delivering compliant solutions. Other exhibitors are also showcasing essential technologies such as AI analytics and machine to machine solutions, which are critical in India where continuous manual CCTV monitoring is not always feasible. Products such as E-vehicle fire detection systems also align well with our market needs.”
Mr Shiv Charan Yadav, Past President, Asian Professional Security Association, India
“Smart technology is definitely an emerging trend at the show, with many exhibitors integrating AI into their solutions for more intelligent industrial applications. We are seeing practical benefits such as license plate recognition, crowd analysis for railway safety, smoke detection, and unattended bag alerts, making surveillance more proactive and efficient. Secutech has been one of the best platforms I have experienced in Taiwan for security, surveillance, and monitoring. We have already connected with promising vendors for railway surveillance and solar applications, and we are looking forward to building partnerships to bring these solutions to market soon.”
Mr Bunardi, Director, PT Alvasta Teknologi, Indonesia
In addition to the product showcases, Secutech 2026 presented 133 seminars and forums that examined new approaches to AI‑driven ecurity, fire safety, and disaster prevention. Sessions united experts from industry and academia to discuss practical strategies for resilience planning and sustainable infrastructure, reinforcing the fair’s dual role as both a technology marketplace and a knowledge‑sharing hub.
