TB Forum 2027: a cross-sector security and technology forum

TB Forum, officially presented as the Technologies and Security Forum, is scheduled for 17–19 February 2027 at Crocus Expo. The organiser markets the venue as Moscow; the venue address is in Krasnogorsk, Moscow Oblast. The event combines an exposition with a business programme covering digital transformation, information security and the protection of physical and critical infrastructure.

Why TB Forum matters

Compare connected systems

The announced subjects span enterprise IT, cybersecurity, fire and transport safety, and protection of infrastructure. For organisations responsible for several connected environments, the programme may help frame comparisons across operational and information risks rather than treating each system as a separate purchase.

Examine implementation questions

Listed sessions address practical AI applications, trust and information security, industrial control systems, critical information infrastructure, data-centre operations and data management. These topics give technical teams a basis for focused questions about deployment, continuity and security requirements.

Bring buyers and solution providers into the same discussion

The organiser describes the forum as serving large customers, project offices, integrators, developers and suppliers. This mix may support useful discussions about project needs and solution fit, although no particular meeting or commercial outcome is guaranteed.

Who should visit TB Forum?

Enterprise and public-sector technology or security teams

Use the programme to identify sessions relevant to your organisation's information security, digital infrastructure, physical protection or critical systems. Before attending, define the operational problem, compliance questions and technical requirements you need to clarify.

Project offices and systems integrators

Map the event's digital, cyber and physical-security themes against projects in planning or delivery. Prepare questions about interoperability, operating conditions, implementation responsibilities and support needs; these are evaluation prompts, not claims that a particular product will meet them.

Technology developers and suppliers

Consider whether your products or services address the needs reflected in the announced programme. A concise explanation of deployment conditions, integration requirements and the problems your solution is designed to address can make technical conversations more productive.

What can you find at TB Forum?

The 2027 registration page lists programme choices across several connected areas:

• Artificial intelligence, practical applications, trust and information security
• Digital transformation, data management and domestic IT platforms for large organisations
• Cybersecurity, industrial control systems and critical information infrastructure
• Fire protection and minimising damage from fires
• Transport security and digital transformation of transport
• Anti-UAV detection, suppression and engineering protection
• Data-centre engineering and IT infrastructure
• Perimeter protection, integrated security and secure software development

These are subjects shown on the organiser's current programme and registration materials; check the organiser's latest information before making plans.

Set a practical objective before attending

Replace a broad goal such as “see what is new” with a decision you can use afterwards. For example, identify the technical questions that must be answered before a security-system review, compare approaches to one defined infrastructure risk, or assess whether an outsourced security service merits further evaluation. Keep the objective narrow enough to guide which sessions and conversations deserve your time.

How to prepare for TB Forum

1. Choose your participation focus. The organiser's registration materials distinguish visiting, presenting and exhibiting. Confirm the current conditions and programme directly with the organiser.
2. Prioritise relevant topics. Select listed sessions that match your role and projects, such as data-centre resilience, critical infrastructure, transport security or secure software development.
3. Prepare technical questions. Note the environment, scale, integration constraints, operating responsibilities and evidence you need to evaluate a solution. Avoid sharing sensitive infrastructure or incident details in an open discussion.
4. Record next steps. For each useful conversation, capture the organisation, solution area, why it matters to your project and the follow-up information required. Validate any proposal against your own technical, procurement and regulatory requirements.

After TB Forum: turn discussions into decisions

Sort follow-ups by urgency: immediate project questions, potential suppliers or partners, and broader market intelligence. Ask for the technical documentation, integration details, service scope or evidence needed for your evaluation. Compare responses against the same requirements and involve your security, engineering, procurement and legal teams where appropriate.

Is TB Forum worth visiting?

TB Forum is most relevant to professionals working across enterprise technology, cybersecurity, information security and physical or critical-infrastructure protection. Its combined programme may be useful when a project crosses more than one of those domains. Visitors with a defined technical or procurement question are better placed to judge the fit than those attending without a priority; the published information does not establish attendee scale or guarantee access to specific suppliers or decision-makers.

Make the visit purposeful

Choose the project or risk you want to understand, use the programme to focus your time, and leave with specific questions to resolve. Compare what you learn against your own operating requirements before taking a purchasing or partnership decision.

Cybersecurity opportunities in Russia

Market size and demand

TAdviser reported that Russian spending on information-security outsourcing reached RUB 32.1 billion in 2025, up 23% year on year, citing an analytical review by Global Remote Professionals published on 31 August 2026. This is a measure of outsourced information-security spending, not the value of the entire cybersecurity market.

Drivers and areas to investigate

The same review attributes demand to stricter security requirements for critical information infrastructure, personal-data breach penalties, the financial impact of cyber incidents, shortages of specialists and the cost of in-house security operations. TAdviser also describes providers extending security monitoring and response offers towards mid-sized organisations. Security-service suppliers may therefore investigate demand for managed monitoring and response; buyers may compare service scope, incident handling, staffing and fit with their own systems. The evidence does not establish that any particular supplier will find customers or that the segment is attractive for every entrant.

Market-entry considerations

The sources reviewed for this update did not verify the current certification, licensing or procurement conditions applicable to each product or service. Companies considering the Russian market should check the rules relevant to their specific offering and customer sector before committing resources.

Discover Moscow

The event is marketed as taking place in Moscow, while Crocus Expo's address places the venue in Krasnogorsk, Moscow Oblast. Visitors extending a business trip into Moscow can consider the Tretyakov Gallery, whose collection covers Russian art from the 12th to the early 20th century, or New Tretyakov on Krymsky Val, which presents 20th-century and contemporary art. Check current visitor information with each institution and allow separately for travel between the venue municipality and the city.
