About Day Two

On Day Two we explored the status of LTE in the public-safety sector; how drones increasingly are being used to enhance emergency response; and numerous strategies designed to enable public-safety and justice agencies to more effectively analyze, integrate and regionalize data to enable personnel to enable improved emergency response and justice outcomes. We also examined several change-management philosophies that will enable any agency to evolve as needed.
