Empowering public safety at IACP 2017

I enjoy meeting with law enforcement leaders throughout the country to discuss how we can help them keep their communities safe with our cloud-powered solutions that improve operational effectiveness and citizen engagement. With the upcoming International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Annual Conference and Exposition, Oct. 21-24, in Philadelphia, our Microsoft team will share our strategies to empower public safety through our trusted Azure and Azure Government cloud platforms and a broad spectrum of partner solutions for law enforcement.

Leading-edge law enforcement solutions

It’s an honor for Microsoft to serve as a platinum sponsor of this premier conference for three years in a row, with the City of Brotherly Love providing a fitting location for the largest gathering of law enforcement leaders in the world. This year, we’ll have our most significant IACP presence ever so please join us at Booth No. 2125 to:

  • Get behind the wheel of the Microsoft patrol car, which showcases solutions that can help law enforcement improve incident response and create safer communities. We’ll offer hands-on demonstrations of robots, drones, cameras, automatic license-plate recognition and other cloud-powered, connected technologies.
  • Participate in 30-minute solution presentations in our Microsoft Public Safety Innovation Theater. Microsoft will join partners in presenting leading-edge law enforcement solutions—video, situational awareness, records management, dispatch, fingerprint identification, Internet of Things and more. Please review our complete list of sessions and stop by to learn about new partner solutions, best practices and success stories.  
  • Experience interactive artificial intelligence solutions powered by Azure. Artificial intelligence is starting to deliver new breakthrough capabilities for law enforcement that can identify hidden patterns and trends, spot missing children and disrupt criminal enterprises.

Trusted cloud, digital transformation

We’ll also share key content in two formal IACP presentations:

  • Trusted Cloud for Law Enforcement, Oct. 23: Richard Zak, director of Microsoft’s Justice & Public Safety Solutions, will share how the cloud is powering new capabilities in law enforcement and the best practices for leveraging cloud-based tools for analysis, collaboration and mobility.
  • Digital Transformation for Safer Citizens, Communities and Responders, Oct. 24: I’m excited for law enforcement leaders to join me in discussing how technology is enabling transformations, including examples of agencies using cloud solutions to increase operational capability, situational awareness and citizen engagement.

Law enforcement’s most trusted advisor

Our participation in the 124th annual IACP Conference and Exposition provides a great opportunity to share new capabilities, demonstrate Microsoft’s commitment to helping police departments keep citizens and communities safe, and further IACP’s mission of serving the global law enforcement community.
