Are you implementing robust growth strategies to overcome obstacles in the commercial & public security domain?
As public safety agencies modernize their emergency response protocols and enhance mission effectiveness, new technology solutions are becoming essential force multipliers. Unmanned drone systems are a prime example, offering first responders superior situational awareness and real-time data analysis while ensuring the safety of personnel in the field. Although the adoption of these systems has been slow due to high initial costs and a shortage of trained operators, there is a significant opportunity for vendors to collaborate with agencies, enabling the full-scale deployment of these advanced technologies. Given budget constraints of public safety agencies, they face a choice between investing in proven solutions and adopting promising but expensive technologies.
Frost & Sullivan’s recent Commercial & Public Security webinar delved into the realm of – Exploring Growth Opportunities in Unmanned Solutions for Public Safety. This engaging discussion explored new growth strategies in unmanned drone systems, emphasizing the importance of innovative funding models, comprehensive training programs, and collaborative partnerships between vendors and agencies.
Here, the following growth experts evaluated the primary challenges, growth opportunities, and examined the role that various stakeholders will play in shaping the industry’s trajectory: Danielle VanZandt – Growth Expert and Research Manager at Frost & Sullivan; Nils Schaefer – Growth Expert & Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan; and Dolores Aleman – Growth Expert & Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
