European Security Services Market – How to Remain in the Market

Frost & Sullivan to Host Quarterly Analyst Briefing on the European Security Services Market on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 at 15.00 BST

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Frost & Sullivan will host a free telephone and web briefing on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 at 15.00 BST, to provide industry participants with an overview of the European Security Services Market.

The economic downturn and housing bubble have made 2008 a challenging year for the European security services industry. Different vertical and geographic markets show extremely different dynamics with growth from double digit in some of segments to negative in others. Furthermore, new Information Technology (IT) players are increasing the competition level. Traditional security system integrators, hardware/software vendors and new IT players, who are able to understand the different dynamics and the new challenges, will be those to benefit by the growth in the market.

This briefing is based upon ongoing European Security Services Market analysis. Highlights of the briefing include analyses of service offerings, vertical and geographic market sizing and competitive analysis. This briefing will benefit hardware manufacturers, system integrators, software management providers and building management system providers by discussing emerging trends and providing forward projections for the European Security Services Industry.

“Migration to IP is pushing the growth in the otherwise flat security services industry, in Europe. Integration of access control and video surveillance systems and new value added services are driving the growth in an shrinking or flat market; increasing commoditization of standard services will push companies, which are not adapting to the evolution of the market, out of the it,” observes Matia Grossi, Industry Analyst for Frost & Sullivan Electronics and Security group.
