On 26-27 June 2024, IMA hosted the SUNRISE Project Consortium Assembly in Prague. The meeting took place in the conference rooms of the partner company OKsystem, a.s.
The SUNRISE project focuses on developing strategies and technologies for a unified and resilient critical infrastructure in Europe during potential pandemics and crisis situations. The aim is to ensure greater availability, reliability and continuity of critical infrastructures, including transport, energy, water and healthcare.
The IMA is an active partner in a consortium of 41 members from across Europe and is involved in the development of the Risk-Based Access Control (RiBAC) tool, which allows existing access control systems to be extended to include factors specific to pandemics and crisis situations.
The SUNRISE project is funded by Horizon Europe under grant agreement No. 101073821.

SicherheitsExpo Munich 2026 offered a clear view of what customers and partners are looking for in modern access control: flexible installation, reliable smart locking technologies, secure data handling, and solutions that are easy to understand in practice.
Over two days in Munich, conversations with visitors from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland showed strong interest in smart locker systems, battery-powered locks, wireless access technologies, and the growing role of cybersecurity in everyday access management. The event also confirmed that live product demonstrations remain one of the most effective ways to explain how modern access solutions can solve real customer challenges.
SicherheitsExpo 2026 was an important opportunity for IMA to showcase what modern access control can look like when security, product quality, and innovation come together.
On July 1-2, IMA was represented at the show by our DACH sales representative, Christian Friedrich, together with Jaroslav Budka and Žaneta Dubnická.
