In the past decade, multiple security threats have emerged at national and international levels, questioning the methods countries use to deal with security and border control. Terrorism and illegal immigration are amongst the main challenges that countries are facing and the EC is now paying crucial attention towards the topic of border control, thus investigating options to modernise the Schengen Strategy. If the security of borders and citizens is crucial, it is also paramount to preserve the fundamental values and principles of the EU, as a land of freedom, human rights respect and cooperation.

Zanasi & Partners is strongly committed to EU objectives and to preserve its values of freedom, while ensuring a safe environment for its citizens. The company has taken part in several security and border control projects, tackling multiple issues, from terrorism to illegal smuggling to radicalisation. In this landscape, close interaction with and involvement of security practitioners and LEAs is strongly pursued, to make sure the outcome of the activities would offer valuable solutions or inputs for the end-users.
