the INFORCE

A professional platform to think, showcase, and strengthen security

INFORCE was born from the need to create, in Portugal, an space that connects public entities, companies, operational forces, technicians, and specialists working in the areas of security, civil protection, emergency, and risk management.

More than an exhibition fair, INFORCE positions itself as a platform for knowledge, demonstration, and cooperation, where technical solutions, applied innovation, and operational experience come together to respond to increasingly complex challenges.

An event focused on real-world challenges

INFORCE starts from a clear premise: security is not an isolated topic. It is linked to how cities are planned, how infrastructures are protected, how organizations prepare for crises, and how professionals in the field access better tools, information, and training.

That is why the fair aims to address topics such as:

disaster prevention and management;
protection of critical infrastructure;
technological modernization of operations;
communication and coordination in emergency scenarios;
resilience of public and private entities;
safety of professionals in operational contexts;
preparing populations and organizations for new risks.
