Presentation Description: From COVID-19, natural disasters, large-scale outages, to cyber security threats, strengthening response and resiliency is more critical today than ever. Public and private entities need to connect and work together to innovate and build transformative technologies to address pressing disaster response and resiliency challenges, but how do we get there? What progress has been made in the past year and what's next?
Learning Objectives:
Resources exist today to educate entrepreneurs and public safety departments on the unique challenges and opportunities of the public safety markets.
Innovators and public safety departments often operate in silos - it is crucial for them to work together to source, vet and deploy new technologies that help overcome the nation's resiliency challenges.
A nationwide network that enables knowledge sharing is crucial to ensuring the success of developing and operationalizing new technologies in the public safety space.
