The event is organised every two years under the auspices of the French Ministry of Interior in partnership with several governmental bodies. Its first edition has been held in 1984, a time when the information systems were in their infancy; when the video surveillance just begun to emerge and when the RAID (French elite special forces) wasn't created yet (only a year after)!

For 40 years, Milipol Paris has enjoyed a worldwide status as the leading event dedicated to the security profession. It provides the perfect forum for presenting the latest technological innovations in the area, effectively meeting the needs of the sector as a whole and also addressing current threats and dangers.

Milipol Paris owes its reputation to the consummate professionalism of its participants, its firmly international set-up (55% of exhibitors come from abroad), as well as to the quality and amount of innovative solutions on display.

Every two years Milipol Paris is the ultimate gathering point for all international business professionals from the safety and homeland security sector. It is the focal point for the latest innovations and the place where the future of the industry is defined. As a platform for business, innovation and exchange, the event will meet all your needs, the reason why 89% of 2023 attendees declared their intention to visit Milipol Paris 2025!
