Securitas Technology Ireland attends the SCMAI 2026 Event
A great day at the Hotel Slieve & Russel Hotel
On September 22nd, 2026, the Securitas Technology Ireland team gathered alongside industry peers, property developers, and retail leaders for the annual Shopping Centre Managers Association Ireland (SCMAI) event at the Slieve Russell Hotel in Cavan.
It was a dynamic day filled with meaningful connections and constructive conversations with both long-standing clients and new partners. As retail spaces evolve rapidly to meet changing consumer demands, security operations face unique challenges, balancing high-level protection with seamless customer experiences. Throughout the event, our experts demonstrated how an integrated electronic security framework can empower shopping center managers to upgrade, unify, and simplify their existing security infrastructure.
Navigating the Shift Toward AI, Data, and Smarter Technology
A core takeaway from this year’s conference was the growing conversation around Artificial Intelligence, automation, and data analytics in retail management. While many organisations in Ireland are currently testing the waters and weighing their options regarding AI adoption, Securitas Technology has spent years developing and refining practical, real-world applications for modern electronic security.
Beyond deploying advanced tools, we believe technology must be implemented responsibly. Securitas Technology remains a strong advocate for ethical AI standards, ensuring that data protection, transparency, and public trust remain at the centre of every deployment.
