The International Border Security & Tech Workshop, curated by Tangent Link Ltd, addresses one of the most pressing geopolitical challenges of our time: the management of physical and digital borders. This three-day workshop focuses on the implementation of biometric technologies, AI-driven surveillance, and secure data exchange protocols. In the wake of increasing global migration and evolving smuggling tactics, border agencies require a new toolkit that balances security with human rights.
The workshop will provide over 400 words of technical guidance on deploying integrated sensor networks and the use of satellite imagery for maritime border control. Participants will engage in tabletop exercises simulating various border crises, from humanitarian influxes to high-stakes counter-terrorism operations. Slough’s diverse international community and its position near London’s major airports make it a relevant location for these discussions. Topics will also include the "Smart Border" initiative, which aims to use facial recognition and automated gates to streamline legitimate travel while identifying threats. There will be a significant focus on the ethics of data privacy and the prevention of algorithmic bias in security software. This is a hands-on event designed for those on the front lines of national defense and law enforcement.
