Every Angle Covered at GSX 2026: One team, five businesses, 130+ experts

The 2026 Global Security Exchange (GSX) tradeshow took place from September 14-16 in Atlanta, Georgia. For those 3 days, over 16,000 security professionals from over 80 countries turned Atlanta into the nexus of the global security industry.  

 

Riding the momentum of the Outstanding Contract Security Company (Guarding) win at the 2026 OSPAs, we gathered our sharpest minds in security across five business units to prove that "Every Angle Covered" wasn't just a slogan, but how we operate.  

One team.

Five businesses.

130+ experts.

At the heart of our presence was scale: 130 experts from GardaWorld Security, ECAM, Crisis24, Crisis24 AiiA, and BEST Crowd Management staffed booth 2232 throughout the GSX show.  

We wanted attendees to walk away from the booth seeing how "Every Angle Covered" meant how different security needs and capabilities connect together. Whether a visitor's challenge was mobile surveillance, crowd safety, global risk intelligence, or AI-powered threat detection, there was an expert on-site who could speak to it and point them to the right teammate if the conversation crossed into another specialty. 

The future of security: The expert speaker sessions

Throughout GSX, our booth doubled as a stage for thought leaders and experts across numerous fields: AI, workplace culture, anticipatory decision intelligence, remote video monitoring, future trends in security, and sales enablement. These themes reinforced our strength in connecting technology, intelligence, and people.

In total, there were 10 in-booth speaker sessions that spanned across GardaWorld Security, ECAM, Crisis24, and Crisis24 AiiA, and all videos replays will be available in the upcoming weeks. 

Here’s the complete list of speaking sessions:

• From security cameras to security intelligence
• Security trends reshaping 2027: Where customers are investing
• See critical events first: From AI detection to confident decision-making
• One Partner. One Strategy. Better Security Outcomes.
• Why white-label security services are the next growth engine
• The engine behind the sale: How sales enablement drives productivity and growth
• The cost of confident wrong answers: Why your AI needs human intelligence
• The Ambassador Era: Why workplace culture enhances security performance
• From situational awareness to anticipatory decision intelligence
• The evolution of remote video monitoring: Trends driving the industry forward

Taking you out to the ballgame  

We brought the energy of a ballpark to the booth with a game designed to make our business lineup unforgettable.  

The game was built to be approachable for attendees who had never heard of GardaWorld Security, ECAM, Crisis24, Crisis24 AiiA, or BEST Crowd Management.

Here's how it worked:

• A team of 3-5 players stepped onto the field.
• The host presents four short, real-world security scenarios.
• The team would identify which GardaWorld business was best suited to solve the scenarios. Get it right, and you advance to the next base. Get it wrong, our host would outline a key security takeaway.

 

 

 

 

• After four rounds, the team's final score determines their tier of promotional swag. They got to choose between items like baseballs, lions mascots, and multitools.

 

 

 

 

 

Additionally, there were foil packs of baseball cards that every participant received, with a 1 in 5 chance of pulling a holographic foil set of cards that entered them into a draw for a larger prize. Winners to be announced soon.

Looking ahead

Thank you to everyone who stepped up to the plate, sat in on a session, or just stopped by to say hello. If you couldn’t make this year’s GSX but still want to speak about the future of security with GardaWorld Security, talk to an expert.
