The agenda will include three expert panel discussions:

  • Panel One: Government Agencies and Public Safety Initiatives;

  • Panel Three: Beyond Voice — Broadband Applications for First Responders.

An official summit agenda will be released by the PSHSB. The summit will be open to the public; however, admittance will be limited to the seating available. A live audiocast will be available on the FCC’s Web site.
