Do you seek a solution for a problem or technology gap? Do you want to work with innovative start-ups to improve a security gap?

It is the core business of the Global Security Challenge (GSC) to run and organize competitions – unique in the security space.  Founded in 2006, the GSC has been challenging the brightest minds in research, start-ups and labs to address some of the most vexing security issues on earth.

Experience in Hosting Bespoke Competitions

The GSC process builds on the experience of having run 11 global security and defence technology competitions for large organisations and governments so they can access pre-screened innovative ideas unique within the search space. Examples of existing competitions we run:

-     Cloud Security Challenge – sponsored by HP Labs

-     Best Security Start-Up – sponsored by TSWG (U.S. Department of Defense)

-     Best Security Idea – sponsored by Accenture

-     Cyber Security Challenge – sponsored by BAE Systems

-    Crowded Places Challenge – sponsored by INSTINCT (U.K. Government)

Why Running a Competition with GSC?

You can host a competition on the GSC infrastructure to reach thousands of security innovators worldwide and take advantage of our international network and years of experience in running the world’s leading security start-up competitions together with governments and industry from around the world. We have a track record in finding emerging technologies and connecting them with the right people in industry, government and venture capital – our past finalists raised $78 million so far via our competitions and events.
