ExCeL London and the security company ICTS UK & Ireland have joined forces to further enhance the venue’s safety and security through its detection canine team.

International Consultants on Targeted Security (ICTS) boast more than 35 years’ experience in the sector and are accredited to NCTAS-P standards – a collaborative initiative between the Home Office, Counter Terrorism Policing and the National Protective Security Authority.

“The safety and security of everyone who comes to ExCeL London – be it event organisers, exhibitors, suppliers, staff or our four million annual visitors – remains our utmost importance. Since ICTS joined the team here at ExCeL we’ve already seen even further benefits to our operations thanks to their experience, professionalism, and passion for what they do. They have seamlessly integrated themselves into our security team, along with our stakeholders, local residents and neighbouring businesses, to ensure we have an even better 360 approach to everyone’s wellbeing. We love having them as part of our team.”

Henry Havis, ExCel Head of Security
