As live events return to the UK, The Emergency Services Show at the NEC, Birmingham, 7 and 8 September 2021 will be the first opportunity for the entire UK emergency services community and its supply chain to get together. The transformational power of new and emerging technologies will be the central theme of the expanded and enhanced trade show, which features over 450 exhibitors, more than 90 of which are new.
The Emergency Services Show uniquely brings together police, fire and rescue, ambulance, search and rescue services, their partners and suppliers. It is the one place where visitors can explore innovative technologies, see the latest equipment, share experiences, exchange best practice and learn from each other.
Adapting to the new challenges created by COVID has heightened the demand and pressure on our emergency services. Diverse and innovative emerging technologies have been rapidly deployed in a period of unprecedented change and are the core theme of the exhibition and accompanying programme of over 80 CPD-accredited seminar sessions in five theatres.
Foremost among technology exhibitors are leading support organisations for the emergency services sector, including the police National Enabling Programmes (NEP), Police Digital Service, techUK, and the Home Office Emergency Services Network (ESN), which will replace the current Airwave service used by the emergency services in Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland) and transform how they operate.
Learning new skills and promoting technology collaboration will continue to underpin the exhibition floor and content theatres. For full details on the show content, please visit: emergencyuk.com/whats-on
