“ISNR Abu Dhabi 2012 will play a key role in the modernization efforts of the UAE Ministry of Interior as it will introduce the latest technologies and best practices in the field. It will also serve as a venue for highlighting our achievements in national civil defence and emergency preparedness. Participants will be introduced to applications, technologies, equipment and innovation of the fast-paced local homeland security environment. The event will feature various investment opportunities to people and groups of diverse backgrounds, nationalities and homeland security agendas,” said Major General Al Matroushi.
