Episode Description

The buzz: “Government’s first duty and highest obligation is public safety” (Arnold Schwarzenegger). With 70+% of the world projected to live in cities by 2050, public safety is top of mind. But although today’s crime-monitoring devices are GPS-tracked in real time – video surveillance, gunshot recorders, license plate scanners – the captured data needs to be blended on a map, so first responders can predict, instead of simply react to, crime. How safe is your neighborhood? The experts speak. Justin Bean, Hitachi Insight Group: “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied together in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly” (Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.). Dr. Alison Brooks, IDC: “Last guys don’t finish nice” (Saul Alinsky). James Alfano, SAP: “We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible” (Vince Lombardi). Join us for Smart Cities and Public Safety Technology: Monitor, Predict, Prevent Crime.
