FICCI has successfully hosted two editions of the FICCI CSO Conclave, and we are thrilled to announce the 3rd edition, scheduled to take place on February 4, 2025, at FICCI Federation House, New Delhi. The previous edition was a resounding success, drawing over 200 participants. This year’s Conclave aims to engage with Chief Security Officers (CSOs) to understand their experiences with the evolving risk landscape and their requirements for skilled manpower and advanced technological solutions. It will also serve as a platform for technology companies and private security organizations to gain insights into the needs of CSOs and tailor their offerings accordingly.

The Conclave will tackle some of the most pressing challenges in the fields of safety and security by convening experts to discuss a diverse range of critical topics. Key areas of focus include risk management, digital forensics, and cybersecurity - essential in today’s rapidly evolving threat environment. The event will also explore corporate security strategies, the evolving role of Chief Security Officers, and the increasing significance of the Private Security Industry (PSI). Furthermore, the integration of artificial intelligence in corporate security, innovative safety solutions, and cutting-edge, data-driven cloud security practices will be discussed, offering a glimpse into the future of the industry.

The CSO Conclave is designed to foster learning and collaboration, providing a unique opportunity for CSOs to share their perspectives on the shifting risk landscape. It also aims to bridge the gap between technology providers, private security organizations, and the pressing needs of the security community.
