The Fifth Annual First Responder Vendor Outreach Forum (VOF) will take place on October 16 & 17 at the Sheraton Ottawa Hotel and will offer two unique conference tracks running concurrently.

Track 1 - Executive Boardrooms: An exclusive series of ‘Dragon Den’ sessions where ICT vendors will meet with a panel of key Canadian First Responder ‘investors’ and IT decision makers to present their unique product/service solutions, receive valuable feedback and meet interested buyers.

Track 2 - Plenary Sessions: A running series of 40-minute Plenary Sessions led by First Responders on topics such as "how-to" sessions on selling to them, procurement opportunities, recent research, interoperability, broadband advocacy, and concluded with a town hall session.

This VOF brings top Information and Communication Technology (ICT) companies together with Canada’s First Responders and Public Safety and Security (PSS) community to help shape the future direction of industry R&D efforts and contribute to the development of a technology roadmap for First Responders nationwide.
