WELCOME FROM BAPCO’S PRESIDENT
John Anthony, BAPCO President
BAPCO President, John Anthony, discusses why the BAPCO
Conference and Exhibition is the most important event in
the UK public safety communications calendar.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and the Executive
Members, I want to invite you to the 2020 BAPCO
Conference and Exhibition which is being held once again
at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry.
BAPCO continues to be the premier event in the public
safety technology sector, providing a forum for professionals
in the eld to exchange ideas and experiences, and to keep
up to date with the latest developments.
Of course, this event would not be possible if it were not
for the unwavering support of our sponsors, exhibitors
and speakers. Take a look at the exhibitor list for instance,
and you will probably nd that there are too many to get
around and see them all. And with four conference streams
running simultaneously, you certainly will not be able to
catch all of the sessions.
With that in mind, we hope you use this preview to help plan your visit, in order to get the most from the two days should
you choose to attend. And, if you miss anyone on the exhibition oor, there may be an opportunity to speak informally at
the Annual Dinner, which always provides a perfect backdrop for networking.
The aforementioned conference sessions will feature a diverse range of speakers from home and abroad, allowing you to hear
about global trends in regard to both public safety technology and collaboration. You will also hear about the latest changes
to the UK’s telecom network from Ofcom, enabling you to consider how they will impact on the public safety environment.
As well as the exhibition, conference and annual dinner, you will also nd other regular features such as the Drone Zone,
and of course the Networking Lounge, where BAPCO members can enjoy refreshments and network with colleagues.
Above all, whether you’re a supplier, end user or simply someone interested and working in the eld, we want you to
maximise the bene t of attending the event. To that end, we continue to work with our sponsors, event organiser and
Executive Members to make each event better than the last.
Please do register for our annual Conference and Exhibition, which this year is free to attend. I look forward meeting
you in March.
John Anthony, MBE
