A deep dive into the technologies and policy frameworks driving in-building coverage — from next-generation signal boosters and WiFi offload strategies to spectrum discussions around 4.9 GHz, Sidelink, and the road to 6G.

TOPIC 03

Public Safety Perspectives

First responder and law enforcement leaders discuss how in-building wireless capabilities affect life-safety operations — including the FirstNet reauthorization, situational awareness tools, and interoperability challenges.

TOPIC 04

School Safety Legislation

An urgent look at the legislative landscape for school safety — covering Alyssa’s Law and Alyssa’s Act, indoor mapping and location technology, threat detection systems, and the growing conversation around cell phone policies in schools.

TOPIC 05

NG 911: The Path Forward

Where does Next Generation 911 stand today, and what’s needed to get it where it needs to be? Sessions will cover mapping and location accuracy, the integration of the newest incident data, and removing barriers to full deployment.

Wireless Workforce Development

The industry can’t grow without the people to build it. This topic tackles training and certification policy, Department of Labor apprenticeship programs, and strategies for building a pipeline of skilled wireless professionals.
