- About SAGE
One afternoon. The whole security industry, in your home town.
The Day
One afternoon, four ways to get ahead: walk a sold-out exhibition floor, sit in on free expert seminars, take government-only training, and close the night at the ASIS ACT Gala Dinner.
Who It's For
Built for the people who protect the capital — security and facilities managers, Agency Security Advisers, CSOs, consultants, integrators, installers, and government and commercial end users.
SAGE brings the latest physical and electronic security technology to Canberra’s government and commercial security community — no interstate travel required. For one focused afternoon, security managers, facilities managers, consultants, integrators and installers get hands-on with the products and platforms shaping how the nation’s capital protects its people, assets and information. Short, sharp and genuinely useful, SAGE pairs a sold-out exhibition floor with a free expert seminar stream, government-only training, and the industry’s premier networking dinner.
