This year’s Critical Communications World is being held in Marina Bay Sands, Singapore from 20 to 22 May. Motorola Solutions will be a key participant in what promises to be both a lively conference and a very busy exhibition.

If you are able to travel to Singapore you will undoubtedly get the whole experience. If not, you can follow our Think Public Safety blog, as we plan on providing some insight from a European public safety perspective during the event itself.

So, what’s going to be the conference buzz? Motorola is contributing 10 speakers to the conference starting with Bruce Brda, Senior VP Government Solutions, who will be giving a keynote speech.

A ‘don’t miss’ topic will be ‘The Convergence of TETRA and LTE’ being presented by Scott Mottonen, VP Private Broadband and Iain Ivory, Director, TETRA Subscriber Product Management.

Other conference topics topics include ‘Secured communication on collaborating platforms’, ‘Planning for the future of critical communications broadband services’, ‘Exploring the possibilities for deploying LTE for professional users’, ‘Expanding the reach of TETRA in remote areas’ and ‘Data services and TETRA broadband’.

We will be exhibiting in Hall D, Basement 2. This year’s exhibition theme is ‘Innovation Mobilising Intelligence’. This recognises that innovation transcends industry sectors and enables people and organisations to achieve what is important to them.

The exhibition will have solutions split into three areas:

Public Safety. This is all about collaborating in real-time with mission critical intelligence - shifting from 'ready for anything' to 'ready for what's next'. Demonstrations of this include a life size command and control centre pulling voice, data and video together into a single unified stream; a ‘Connected Responder’ and a ‘Connected Vehicle’.

Minerals and Energy. This is focused on maximising each day's extraction while maintaining an attitude of zero tolerance for accidents.

Transportation and Logistics. All about the 24/7 business of moving people or cargo with access to real-time data for each and every delivery.

Hopefully this gives you a taste of this year’s Critical Communications World. To find out more visit our Critical Communications World microsite
