From 28 to 30 April 2026, Coventry Enterprises Singapore (CES) joined over 270 exhibitors at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, for Milipol TechX (MTX) 2026 - Asia-Pacific's leading platform for public safety technology and innovation. Over the course of three days, the event drew more than 21,000 visitors and 3,000 high-level delegates from government agencies, defence organisations, emergency services, and the private sector, further reinforcing Singapore's role as a key regional hub for homeland security collaboration and dialogue.
For CES, MTX 2026 was not simply a platform to exhibit, it was an opportunity to showcase the full ecosystem of simulation-based training solutions to the very audiences who rely on them most.
A Suite That Reflects the Full Training Cycle
Our booth showcased four complementary platforms, each addressing a distinct dimension of modern public safety training.
XVR Simulation
Our flagship offering anchored the booth with a live riot scenario, an immersive, instructor-controlled environment that placed visitors directly in command of a rapidly evolving public order situation. As the exclusive Asia Regional Support Centre for XVR, CES has deployed the platform across fire services, civil defence, and law enforcement agencies throughout the region. Used by over 300 organisations in 50 countries to train more than 150,000 incident responders annually, XVR's strength lies in its flexibility: every scenario is customisable, repeatable, and measurable. These are exactly the qualities that matter to professional training organisations operating under real operational pressures.
RE-liON
Alongside XVR, RE-liON attracted significant visitor interest with its virtual shooting range simulation. Purpose-built for law enforcement and security training, RE-liON enables realistic, scenario-based firearms proficiency and tactical decision-making training without the logistical and safety constraints of a live-fire environment. Visitors who stepped into the demo found themselves making judgement calls under pressure which, as many observed, was exactly the intended experience.
Predict Media
Predict Media offered something less commonly seen on the public safety exhibition floor: a crisis communication simulation platform that recreates the full information environment of an unfolding incident, including mock-ups of social media channels and formal media outlets. In an age where the information battle often runs parallel to the operational one, Predict Media trains commanders and communication teams to manage narrative, monitor misinformation, and make decisions under reputational pressure, not just operational pressure.
Performaar
Completing the ecosystem was Performaar, a debrief and performance analytics platform designed to capture, replay, and analyse training data for faster and more structured post-exercise evaluations. While simulation creates the operational experience, Performaar transforms that experience into actionable learning outcomes, enabling a continuous cycle of assessment and measurable improvement.
Together, the four platforms reflect a unified training philosophy: that simulation-based training delivers the greatest impact when it supports the entire exercise lifecycle from command and response to communication, evaluation, and debriefing.
Conversations That Counted
Over the three days, the CES booth drew visitors from across the public safety and defence community, spanning law enforcement, fire services, narcotics control, defence agencies, and industry associations from Singapore, Australia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and beyond. The level of engagement was substantive. Many visitors chose to go hands-on with the XVR and RE-liON demos, asking pointed questions about scenario customisation, integration with existing training frameworks, and deployment timelines.
The interest was telling. These are agencies that train regularly, operate under strict readiness requirements, and are actively evaluating how technology can make their training programmes more efficient, more rigorous, and better aligned with the complexity of modern threats. The conversations at our booth were not exploratory in the abstract but they were grounded, specific, and operationally minded.
Simulation in the Age of AI and Technology
MTX 2026 highlighted a clear theme across both its conference programme and exhibition floor: the intersection of artificial intelligence with operational public safety capability. Keynotes explored sovereign AI, digital resilience, and the role of data in shaping faster, smarter institutional responses. Simulation technology has long been positioned at the centre of this conversation, and the pace of advancement is continuing to accelerate.
The platforms CES showcased aligned closely with this evolving landscape. Performaar's data-driven debrief capability, Predict Media's information environment simulation, and XVR's measurable scenario-based training all reflect a shift in how public safety organisations are beginning to think about training: not as periodic events, but as continuous, data-informed processes that generate institutional learning over time. AI does not replace the human judgement required in a crisis, but it can sharpen the training that builds that judgement and provide the analytical layer to understand where it breaks down.
CES stands at the point where this convergence is most practically applicable: delivering simulation ecosystems to government agencies and emergency services that are not only technically advanced but operationally grounded in the realities of the Asia-Pacific region.
Looking Ahead
MTX 2026 reaffirmed something we have long understood: demand for credible, deployable simulation-based training in the region is not declining but it is broadening, into new agencies, new domains, and new levels of operational sophistication. As the region's dedicated support centre for XVR Simulation, and as the regional partner for RE-liON, Performaar, and Predict Media, CES is well-positioned to meet that demand where it exists and grow it where it is emerging.
We leave MTX 2026 with meaningful new connections, reinforced relationships, and a clearer view of where the region's training needs are heading. We look forward to continuing those conversations and to the work of turning them into capability.
