BAPCO Conference Sessions – Book Your Session

 

All visitors will have the opportunity to book on to one or more of the 18 state-of-the-art sessions over the two days, delivered by industry experts. The stage is set for two days of best practice advice relevant to all areas of public safety communications - whether your business is orientated around the emergency services, or other safety-critical agencies such as Highways England. Topics include ESN, control rooms, future technology, as well as lessons learned from recent, high-profile public safety incidents.


The scope might be wide, but all sessions at the conference will have one thing in common. That is, a focus on providing practical, effectiveness-boosting advice, which visitors can take away and use in their day-to-day business.
