This year was full of successes and failures for the electronic security industry, especially motivated by external factors such as the fall in oil prices, the rise of the dollar, the current state of the Chinese market, among others, made the active players of the industry live opposite realities.
For some industry players it was a year of good business, for others, facing a dollar at a high price was a latent barrier to the achievement of many of the businesses.
In some countries such as Mexico, Colombia and Peru, to name a few cases, as the American currency is through the roof, the will to buy imposed products was delayed in 2015, so many of the good projects are expected to be taking flight in the coming year.
This suggests that 2016 will be a good year for the industry, especially for those who know how to face the difficulties by delivering added value such as consulting, good prices, and active accompaniment to their clients and, of course, to their security projects.
In the same way, it cannot be overlooked that there were also large investments in security, especially in the government, hotel and industrial sector, which greatly boosted the market in the Latin American region.
These are realities of a changing market, which our industry must keep in mind to get ahead. As the old adage goes: "Crises are opportunities."
