More than 80 percent of exhibition space at the Adria Security Summit 2026 is already reserved, with the event still months away. The summit takes place October 7–8 at Zagreb Fair (Zagrebački velesajam).

The pace of bookings reflects something broader than event enthusiasm: Southeast Europe has moved up the priority list for global security manufacturers. Infrastructure spending, EU regulatory convergence and rising demand for integrated physical security solutions are pulling international companies into markets they previously treated as secondary. Several are using the Zagreb edition specifically to establish regional distributor and integrator relationships.

Domestic and regional companies have matched that international uptake. The result is an exhibitor mix that looks less like a regional trade show and more like a working market encounter.

“Zagreb sits at a real commercial crossroads between the Adriatic coast and Central Europe,” said Mahir Hodžić, General Manager of the Adria Security Summit. “The booking pace tells us the industry sees Southeast Europe as somewhere to do business now, not later.”

The 2026 program includes an expanded exhibition floor, a conference program and structured meeting formats between buyers and suppliers.
