TechAmerica Congressional Briefing: D-Block Spectrum and the Public Safety Imperative

Friday, September 23, 2011 ~ 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM

Overview

Please join TechAmerica for a provocative discussion on:

The ins and outs of “D-Block” spectrum. You’ve likely heard the term used, but what is it exactly and why is it important to public safety?
And how can Congress facilitate a robust interoperable public safety broadband network, especially in the wake of Hurricane Irene, the East Coast earthquake, and the 10th anniversary of 9/11?
Public safety and industry panelists will be onhand to provide experienced insight into these current challenges and be available to respond to questions on this vitally important public policy issue before Congress.

Stu Overby, Senior Director, Global Spectrum Strategy, Motorola Solutions, Inc.
Robert Legrande, II, Former CTO, Washington, DC; Founder, The Digital Decision, LLC
James Teel, Director Business Development, Broadband and Cellular, Harris Corporation
A Representative of the Public Safety Alliance
