Global Gathering for the Private Security Industry!

On April 22–23, 2026, the Distrito Anhembi in São Paulo will host the 6th edition of the World Security Congress (WSC) – the most prominent international conference dedicated to the private security sector. The event will bring together C-level executives, department heads, CEOs, consultants, technical leaders, public security representatives, and industry professionals from Brazil and around the world.

Organized by the World Security Federation (WSF) – an institution recognized for its strategic role on the international stage – WSC 2026 aims to foster the exchange of experiences, expand access to knowledge, and strengthen the global private security network. WSF represents the industry before international organizations, promotes integration among companies in the sector, and provides resources related to technology, legislation, and professional competencies.

Content that Drives Transformation

The WSC 2026 program has been meticulously designed to provide a broad and up-to-date view of the market, addressing the most relevant topics in security, technology, and services. Over the course of two days, attendees will take part in discussions, panels, and keynote presentations focusing on:

• Strategic planning
• Development of innovative solutions
• Tools to address the industry’s challenges

With thematic tracks dedicated to experience-sharing, knowledge, and emerging trends, the Congress will serve as a platform for learning and inspiration for the more than 3,000 expected participants, including leaders, executives, analysts, and public officials.

International Recognition

WSC 2026 also marks a historic milestone: in 2024, WSF was recognized by the United Nations as an organization of global relevance, becoming a member of ECOSOC – the UN Economic and Social Council’s Commission for Social Development. This distinction is highly significant, positioning WSF as a globally valued entity within the private security sector – a status granted only to non-governmental organizations that demonstrate alignment with the values and objectives of the United Nations.

Running concurrently with the Congress, the World Security Show will feature a 1,500 m² exhibition area showcasing the sector’s leading innovations. This trade fair will serve as a stage for the best solutions in global security, fostering connections between companies and professionals and generating tangible business opportunities.

Institutional Support

The event is supported by FENAVIST, the most important and representative entity in Brazil’s private security sector, with nationwide reach and active participation in the Pan-American Federation of Private Security – FEPASEP.
