Hub For Security Experts
The Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area is home to 6.4 million people, 7 professional sports teams, and 43 Fortune 1000 companies. Therefore, the security industry in Dallas is at the forefront of innovation and technology. The city has been actively investing in state-of-the-art surveillance systems, emergency response planning, and other security measures to ensure the safety of its residents and visitors. The city has also been successful in developing public-private partnerships that allow businesses and organizations to work together to improve security and share information on potential threats. Dallas serves as a model for other cities looking to enhance their security capabilities and ensure the safety of their communities.
Support Local Non-Profits in Dallas
Did you know that GSX has a significant economic impact on each city we visit? Building on a long-standing commitment, ASIS International has made a promise each year to leave GSX Host Cities better for having been there. In 2022, GSX brought $17.5 million to Atlanta, and directly supported 5,000 jobs. In 2023, we would like to take that a step farther, providing you – our attendees – with an opportunity to directly support individuals impacted by laws, social justice issues, and economic challenges which may prevent them from living in a safe, secure, and healthy environment.
We are partnering with SocialOffset, a nonprofit organization that will funnel 100% of the funds you donate to these vetted, local Dallas non-profits that deliver programs, services, and advocacy for racial justice, LGBTQ+ equality, hunger relief, housing security, environmental sustainability, and the fight against human trafficking. These organizations have been chosen in alignment with ASIS’ DEI efforts, and in the interest of doing our best to honor the commitment of our members to keep ALL persons safe and secure.
