Beyond the Status Quo: New Ways of Delivering Public Safety Technology

Every two years, the CACP Information & Communications Technology (ICT) Committee brings together the country’s top public safety technology leaders to connect, collaborate, and chart the path forward. More than just a conference, this summit is a catalyst for bold ideas, national alignment, and shared progress.

Join us as we explore what’s next in AI, digital trust, cybersecurity, data-driven leadership, and interagency collaboration. Discover real-world solutions, tested strategies, and emerging technologies that are reshaping the way public safety is delivered across Canada.
