EVENT DETAILS
When disaster strikes, technology is there. Or at least it should be.

Join us for a conversation about how networks have prepared for emergencies & unforeseeable events.

In times of crisis, we often turn to technology-our first instinct is to call someone, whether it be family or first responders.

Join us for a conversation about the role network connectivity plays in keeping the lines of communication open & reliable. Learn how 5G is becoming pivotal for emergency response communication, when disaster strikes.

We are dedicated to providing an accessible environment for all attendees. Please let us know if you need a reasonable accommodation to participate in the conversation by June 17th. We will do our best to meet your request.

For any questions please email: events@alley.com
