Registration is available, under the "Attendees" tab, on the FPED VII web site at http://www.fped7.org

FPED VII will present demonstrations of commercial off-the-shelf equipment solutions to current and evolving force protection and physical security challenges. The largest force protection event of its kind in the world, it will feature more than 600 exhibitors demonstrating nearly 4,000 items of equipment designed to reduce vulnerabilities to terrorism, including improvised explosive devices (IEDs). The demonstrations are produced to enhance the overall security of U.S. and allied interests. Only items available for procurement and testing within 90 days may be presented at the event.
