The Maryland Department of Commerce is leading a delegation of Maryland companies this week to Expo Seguridad, the largest exhibition of security products and solutions in Latin America.

Held in Mexico City, this is the second year Commerce has exhibited at the conference, promoting the state’s technology and defense assets and assisting the delegation with expanding into the global marketplace.

The five local companies traveling to Mexico are Alertus Technologies, a leader in emergency mass notification systems located in Beltsville; RBtec, a Derwood manufacturer of fence protection and perimeter security solutions; Securityhunter Inc., a Windsor Mill company committed to securing the nation through advanced electronic and information security solutions; Tansa Security, a certified entry and security system manufacturer providing location access control from Rockville; and Tecore Networks, a pioneer in communication solutions based in Hanover. The delegation will be located in the Maryland booth, #1736.

Tecore Networks plans to feature two of its key products at the trade show, including its iCore® Network in a Box® and Intelligent Network Access Controller. The company has previously traveled with Maryland Commerce to Mexico City and is excited to join the delegation once again.

“This is Tecore's second year exhibiting at Expo Seguridad Mexico and our third International trip with the Maryland Department of Commerce,” said Timothy Smith, Tecore's vice president of business development. “We're excited to share our Private LTE Infrastructure solutions with attendees and be able to meet with organizations face-to-face that are typically outside our network. The planning and introductions that take place prior to the show by the Department have enhanced our experience, not only at the show, but in the region.”

Several of the companies attending Expo Seguridad were awarded ExportMD grants to assist with traveling and marketing costs at the international trade show. Learn more about the export program on our website.
