As a young professional in the security industry, it means a lot to me that SDM is a sponsor of the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association’s (NBFAA) Young Security Professionals (YSP) Executive Forum, which is scheduled for August 19 - 20 in Aurora, Ill., a suburb of Chicago. I’ll be attending the event for SDM, which I’m excited to do. The Executive Forum couldn’t come at a better time, as young industry executives, ages 25 - 45, will have the opportunity to talk with and learn from other YSPs about how best to weather the storm in a worrisome economy. The day and a half of business solutions and operational insights covered through best practice sharing in a non-competitive and open atmosphere is hosted by Alarm Detection Systems headquartered in Aurora.

         
Other companies in the industry that are sponsoring the event include: Tri-Ed, Secure-i, Kleinbard Bell & Brecker LLP and The Alarm Debt Liquidation Group. NBFAA's Executive Strategic Partners, Diamond-level GE Security, Platinum-level Honeywell, and Silver-level partners ADI, Altronix and Security America Risk Retention Group, are also sponsoring the event.
