Dr Bastian Giegerich
Director- General and Chief Executive of IISS
Technology and innovation are both a challenge and an opportunity for security establishments around the globe. The increasing speed of change requires an open, interdisciplinary dialogue. By establishing the GSIS, we are creating a platform for political, business and technology stakeholders to exchange views and ideas, and bring new solutions to the table.
Heiko M. Stutzinger
CEO of Hamburg Messe und Congress
Geopolitical developments in recent years have shown that Europe's North is steadily gaining in strategic importance. By hosting the GSIS in Hamburg, we are closing a geographical gap in the event landscape focused on security.
CCH home of GSIS
Everything under one roof: As part of the Hamburg Messe und Congress (HMC), the CCH is one of the world's most modern venues. CCH provides Germany's most advanced exhibition halls, state-of-the-art conference facilities, premium amenities, a prestigious rooftop terrace, and comprehensive services to support event organisers and exhibitors.
Strategic Location: Hamburg is Germany’s second-largest city and a major hub for international trade and logistics. Its strategic position in Northern Europe makes it easily accessible for delegates from around the world.
Experience in Security: The topic of global security has had a permanent place in the portfolio of HMC for over six decades. In particular, security and defence as well as dual-use products have been high on the agenda of SMM, the world’s foremost maritime trade fair. Furthermore, the International Conference on Maritime Security and Defence (MS&D) is a major congress taking place in Hamburg every two years.
Rich Cultural and Social Environment: Hamburg boasts a vibrant cultural scene, with attractions like the historic Speicherstadt and the famous Reeperbahn. This lively atmosphere provides a unique backdrop for networking and collaboration among industry leaders and policymakers.
Supportive Ecosystem: The city is home to numerous research institutions, universities, and innovative companies focused on security technologies. This ecosystem fosters collaboration and knowledge-sharing, making it an ideal environment for advancing security initiatives.
Commitment to Sustainability: Hamburg is recognised for its commitment to sustainability, which aligns with modern security practices. Hosting an event here underscores the importance of sustainable solutions in the security sector.
