The 9th annual Coastal Surveillance 2012 conference is back this year and will be held on 30-31 October 2012 at the Singapore Expo.

Organized by IQPC and dedicated to understanding the challenges facing the maritime security community, Coastal Surveillance 2012 provides a platform for industry stakeholders to discuss and learn the latest strategies in counter-piracy operations, deepening and enhancing inter-agency cooperation and collaboration and utilizing the latest surveillance/security technology in the face of increasingly sophisticated transnational maritime threats.

With over 20 nations expected at the event, the 9th Annual Coastal Surveillance 2012 summit will hit new levels of seniority, detail and insight, while providing a meeting ground for both military and industry leaders to interact and explore new opportunities.

The 9th Annual Coastal Surveillance 2012 exhibition will feature innovations from solution providers and air/sea platform manufacturers.
