Here are answers to some of the top questions you may have about attending. 

Verkada Security Summits are localized, high-impact events designed to and forge deeper, lasting relationships with regional professionals and thought leaders through engaging content and invaluable networking.


The Verkada World Tour is a global event series that brings the cloud physical security experience to cities worldwide. These smaller-scale events, inspired by our flagship conference VerkadaOne, introduce new products and insights, bringing together hundreds of industry leaders to explore the future of cloud physical security in your region and industry.

Following the success of VerkadaOne 2025, our signature VerkadaOne will stop in cities like Sydney, and London throughout 2026. To supplement this, we will be adding our Security Summits in additional cities to supplement the growing demand for Verkada on the road. Visit verkada.com/world-tour for dates and to join the waitlist.


Each event is a one-day experience featuring keynotes, product demos, Verkada product training, roundtable discussions, and networking. Attendees can also extend their stay for executive briefings or Verkada Certified Engineer courses.

Attend the full event and explore sessions outside your usual focus. Verkada Security Summits offers a chance to learn new skills and network with industry leaders across the rapidly evolving physical security sector.
