Exhibitors invited to tap into Africa’s innovation capital from 21 to 23 October 2025

Securex South Africa, A-OSH EXPO, Facilities Management Expo, and Firexpo — four of the country’s leading industry trade shows — will make their Western Cape debut from 21 to 23 October 2025 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC).

This inaugural Cape Town edition brings the highly successful format of the Johannesburg shows to the heart of Africa’s most dynamic innovation and technology ecosystem. It’s more than just a change of scenery — it’s a strategic move that offers exhibitors direct access to one of the continent’s fastest-growing and most tech-savvy markets.

“Cape Town is a powerhouse of innovation, entrepreneurial energy, and future-focused investment,” says Mark Anderson, Portfolio Director from show organisers Specialised Exhibitions, a division of Montgomery Group. “With a robust tech corridor, growing demand for advanced safety and security solutions, and a thriving business environment, the city offers an ideal platform for companies wanting to showcase their offerings to a highly engaged regional audience.”

Why exhibit in Cape Town?

Cape Town’s rise as Africa’s technology innovation capital is undeniable. The Cape Town–Stellenbosch corridor is home to over 450 tech companies employing over 40 000 people — more than Nairobi and Lagos combined. Nearly 60% of South Africa’s startups are based in the city, with standout names like Yoco, Aerobotics, SweepSouth, Pineapple, and JUMO reinforcing the region’s global appeal.

Add to that the city’s impressive digital infrastructure — including one of Africa’s largest open-access fibre networks, high internet penetration, and an abundance of co-working spaces and accelerators — and you have a setting primed for progressive business engagement.

For exhibitors, this means:

• Access to a forward-thinking, tech-enabled audience across key sectors.
• Opportunities to connect with global investors, corporates, and startup talent.
• Alignment with public and private innovation initiatives.
• Exceptional venue and logistics support in a globally recognised destination.

Four expos. Endless Opportunities. One powerful platform

Securex South Africa, A-OSH EXPO, Facilities Management Expo, and Firexpo have long been a cornerstone of industry engagement. The Cape Town edition builds on this legacy, creating a new gateway for Western Cape-based businesses — and those expanding into the region — to showcase security, safety, facilities management, and fire safety solutions to a high-quality local market.

With safety-focused policies like the Law Enforcement Advancement Plan (LEAP) driving demand for innovative technologies, and economic development agencies like Wesgro and the Western Cape government actively supporting investment and innovation, the October shows are poised to become a landmark event in the Cape Town business calendar.

“Exhibiting in Cape Town means positioning your brand at the intersection of technology, safety, and sustainable growth,” Anderson concludes. “We’re inviting forward-looking companies to take advantage of this fresh, future-focused opportunity to connect and grow.
