EVENT DETAILS
We are excited to invite you to our 7th SwedCham APAC CEO Talk on 17 October, featuring Magnus Ahlqvist​, President & CEO of Securitas Group​, as our distinguished guest. Join us as we explore the rapidly evolving security industry, which is currently undergoing a fundamental transformation.
In recent decades, the world has faced increased uncertainty, marked by geopolitical risks such as terrorism and pandemics, alongside a growing demand for information security. These challenges, driven by technological, demographic, and environmental changes, have significantly reshaped the security sector. Today, "safeguarding" encompasses a much broader scope than ever before, shifting the industry from reactive solutions to proactive strategies. What was once a niche market has evolved into a global force, influencing technological innovation and business strategy.
In this session, we will hear from Magnus Ahlqvist about the key opportunities and challenges he faces as the leader of a major multinational corporation in the security industry. He will discuss the initiatives Securitas is developing to maintain its position at the forefront of the sector, and what role innovation is playing to make it happen. Magnus will share his insights on the role of technology in shaping the future of the industry and how Securitas is driving innovation to help clients proactively identify risks and vulnerabilities, moving away from traditional reactive security measures.
Additionally, we will gain Magnus's insights into the opportunities in Asia, a key growth region for Securitas. We will explore how this region differs from others worldwide and identify the key factors Magnus sees as essential for growth in Asia.
The conversation with Magnus Ahlqvist will be led by Pamela Qiu​, Partner & Head of South East Asia for Control Risks​.
