About the Conference

The face of public safety is changing.

Command Staff need to act quickly to adapt to a rapidly evolving landscape. To prepare, law enforcement leaders must gather to discuss making police operations more efficient while uncovering the opportunities presented by emerging tools used in combating new threats and challenges. This unique event will balance in-person learning with hands on interactivity focusing on the latest technology solutions for law enforcement.

Join Chiefs, Deputy Chiefs, and Directors of IT and dive into the latest trends, tools and opportunities. Calculate how the latest tools can provide a return on investment, improve operational efficiency and increase public safety, and much more!
