Live Immersive Arena

The Live Immersive Arena is anticipated to return, continuing its role as one of the event’s standout features. In 2025, realistic scenarios produced in collaboration with CrisisCast demonstrated multi-layered incident response techniques.

Exhibitors presented their technologies live within these simulated environments, showing how systems operate under real-world pressure. Exhibitors for 2026 are encouraged to get in touch to participate in future demonstrations.
