In the case of any security issues onsite, please contact Global Protective Services or your nearest IoT Event team member who will contact the appropriate person. If the situation is an emergency contact event security staff present within the venue during live hours.
Badges should be worn at all times during the event. Anyone present without a badge should expected to be challenged.
Please remain vigilant at all times and do not leave personal property unattended. Report any concerns or suspicious activity to Security, GPS or Event Staff immediately. For any out of hours’ security issues during the program, contact Global Protective Services.
It should be noted that due to the nature of the event space, rooms within Tobacco Dock are very problematic to secure. Removable items of value should not be left overnight unless by prior agreement with Event Staff. There is no secure storage available for personal property – due to this we strongly recommend limiting personal items brought on site. Cisco, The Venue and the event management do not take responsibility for the loss or theft of any personal property.
Medical Emergency
In the case of a medical incident whilst onsite at Tobacco Dock, report this to a member of event staff, hostess or Event Security who will contact the EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) present onsite for the event.

Fire-fighting and monitoring equipment is located throughout the venue. Please familiarize yourself with the building layout and take note of your nearest fire exit during the event. If a fire alarm sounds, remain calm and exit the building at the nearest, safe exit point. If you discover a fire, raise the alarm using a manual alarm point, exit the building and advise Event or Venue staff.
Firefighting equipment should only be used if you feel it is safe to do so and are familiar with its operation. London Fire Brigade can be contacted on 999.
