    TESTIMONIALS

    Michael,
    Sorry for the delay in getting a "Thank You!" shout out to you and your gang at the Security Network but in part it is your fault. We met so many great contacts at the Security Summit that I have been too busy to thank you! Directly from that conference are relationships between Lorimar Group, Inc. and no less than three companies from the Summit. We have already teamed with some of these companies to win contracts and proposals. Thank you very much again and you will absolutely see Lorimar Group, Inc. at the next Security Summit.

    Thank you,
    Jon Hinkin

    Dear Michael,

    Exciting to hear that this years conference will be on June 28th and 29th.

    We had great exposure at last years event, in fact, we made some terrific connections within State of CA OHS as well as with (potential) customers from our region! Please sign up for a booth again this year, as we are looking forward to another high-level event!!

    Regards, Marc

    SeaBotix participated in the 3rd annual 2006 Security Summit conference held in San Diego as both an Exhibitor and competitor in the Best Security Products competition. We would definitely recommend The Security Summit for any companies interested in demonstrating technologies to key decision-makers from all levels of government and the private sector, both domestic and foreign.

    Besides sales of our remotely-operated vehicles, SeaBotix discovered a number of new technologies being demonstrated by other security-related companies. The results are new partnerships and opportunities for integration of various sensors and system enhancements that were discovered through The Summit's excellent networking channels.

    SeaBotix looks forward to attending The Security Summit 2007 event where we'll undoubtedly foster new relationships with security-related companies and customers, strengthen the relationships we began last year, and face stiff competition in the Best New Security Products event.

    Sincerely,

    Sean Newsome

    The Summit of 2006-----Has brought together Innovators of security “products” with real life- practical- day to day users, the people and organizations, who have operational security needs/issues. The value of the summit is forging an understanding and appreciation of how to work together to solve these issues/problems. The real product of the summit is "collaboration".

    As an Executive Search firm I will continue to participate in the summit. For me the summit is the “crystal ball” and the over the “horizon” view of how products become solutions. Our task is to identify candidates/people that can make that happen.

    "The integration of innovative and existing technologies and equipment is vital in creating effective security worldwide," says Consul and Trade Commissioner Sean Barr, Consulate of Canada, San Diego. "Companies from Canada, San Diego and across the United States are well positioned through the fortunate relationship established with The Security Network to collaborate on developing effective security solutions to the benefit of both our countries."



    Dr. Robert McFadden, CEO of Mobile Detect states, "We really enjoyed this conference both as an attendee and a participant; as businessmen, this is what we are looking for. I met more people at the decision-making level than at any other conference of this nature. That is a rare and valuable commodity that truly enhanced and enriched the experience for everyone involved. The caliber of people that the show attracted was top-notch. The immense value of networking with such a concentrated group of 'movers and shakers' will keep me coming back year after year."
