In this expert-led panel, government leaders from across the U.S. will share how they’re strengthening preparedness and accelerating emergency response with digital solutions. They’ll discuss how these tools fit into the realities of day-to-day operations—where processes are often fragmented and disconnected—and how to bridge those gaps effectively. Gain practical strategies for navigating a future where nothing is certain, and discover insights you can apply in your own community.
