Security Industry Association announces 2024 Board of Directors nominations
The Security Industry Association (SIA) Nominations Committee has recommended four individuals to serve as members of the SIA Board of Directors for an initial two-year term, pursuant to the SIA bylaws.
These nominations will be submitted for ratification at The Advance, SIA’s annual membership gathering during ISC West.

The Advance 2024 will be held on Tuesday, April 9, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. Registration for The Advance is free and includes lunch following the meeting. SIA members can register here.
In response to its formal Call for Nominations issued to SIA members last fall, the Nominations Committee received a significant number of impressive applications for consideration. The committee carefully reviewed each application guided by criteria that emphasized experience with advocacy/public policy and human resources/diversity, equity and inclusion; business acumen; involvement within SIA; and passion for the association and the industry.
SIA members who are unable to attend The Advance or who wish to vote on the Board of Directors nominees before the event can use the proxy voting form to submit their votes.
