Your 2025 Emergency Calling Playbook: Trends & Tips for Success

February 12, 2025 @ 2pm ET

What does it take to build a successful emergency services solution in 2025?

Despite nearly 70% of global organizations recognizing the need for next-gen capabilities, only 40% plan to adopt them (©Metrigy Research Corp, 2024). Even though NG911 offers transformative benefits, like faster response times and enhanced accessibility that could redefine public safety, adoption remains a challenge.

Between the rise of multi-platform environments and evolving regulations, many organizations find themselves in a functional freeze: overwhelmed by the complexity of maintaining compliance, the stress of managing multiple vendors, and a critical lack of understanding of what to do next.

Together with Irwin Lazar from Metrigy, we’ll share key insights into the evolving regulatory and technological landscape, offering practical strategies to overcome common obstacles, along with best practices for developing resilient emergency connectivity for 2025 and beyond.
You’ll Learn:
  • Key trends for 2025: Explore how hybrid environments, global shifts, and evolving regulations are shaping the future of emergency calling.
  • How to prepare for NG911: Tips on transitioning your current systems to integrate smoothly with upcoming advances in emergency services.
  • Streamlining multi-platform management: Strategies to manage emergency calling more effectively across hybrid solutions.
  • Current state vs. upcoming demands: Understand the global trajectory of emergency communication requirements, trends, and how current setups may fall short.
