Speaker: Greg Skarvelis, Principal Solutions Architect, Arcules
Greg Skarvelis: Hey there, this is Greg Skarvelis, Principal Solutions Architect for Arcules. I've been going to ISC West since 1999. I think I've maybe missed one of the shows since then. So I'm excited for this year. Looking forward to it and I hope to see you come by our booth.
What are you most excited about at ISC West this year?
Greg Skarvelis: What I'm most excited about for ISC West this year is to see how AI and cloud have really influenced the market. What new technologies are we going to see? What ideas and innovative thinking are we going to get to see at the show? So I'm looking forward to walking around the floor getting an idea of what's going on and seeing all the new solutions.
What is included in your ISC West survivor kit?
Greg Skarvelis: All right, Greg's survival kit for ISC West. Water, water, water, comfortable shoes. Gotta have comfortable shoes, mints, those are important. You're talking to people all day. So you need to make sure your breath is fresh and, just have a great attitude. Right. You're there to meet people, see new technologies, all that super important.
How can attendees make the most out of ISC West this year?
Greg Skarvelis: Attending ISC and looking at all the different solutions and exhibitors that are there at the show can be overwhelming. And a lot of times you forget half of the information that you capture when you're there at the show. So I think to make the most out of ISC, you have to have a game plan if you're going there for a specific reason, make sure you focus on that specific reason. First, don't allow yourself to scroll away and get caught up on something shiny, focus on those things that are most important for you and your organization and what you wanna see. So use the map, get a game plan, do that. Take breaks, get something to eat, drink water and then save all your exploration of new technologies and things you may not have been thinking of for the last day or the last few hours of your attendance.
What is one word you would use to describe ISCW?
Greg Skarvelis: Awesome.
Why should people attend ISC West?
Greg Skarvelis: ISC West is a great place to get your finger on the pulse of the trends going on in the physical security technology industry. So, if you're curious about what's new, what's coming out, something you may not have even thought of for a solution. It's great. I would want to go there and explore it myself. And I do when I have the time, if I'm not exhibiting, I do explore to see what's new with the trends. Get excited about something, find something I may not have thought of that's going to solve a problem for me. So it's a great place to do that. I recommend you have to attend.
