In this episode, we discuss the results from the 2024 Emerging Critical Tech & Innovation Survey conducted by Omdia, in partnership with IWCE (https://iwceexpo.com/)

This survey, which gathered insights from both end users and vendors in the critical communications industry, sheds light on how technology such as AI, IoT, 5G, and more are impacting this rapidly evolving sector.We explore key topics such as:
  • The state of emerging technologies in critical communications as of 2023
  • How vendors and end users are approaching new technologies, and the differences in their perspectives
  • Future potential technologies, including video analytics, rapid deployment solutions, and cybersecurity
  • The budget constraints and sales targets from both sides of the industry
  • The importance of bridging the gap between traditional LMR (Land Mobile Radio) systems and newer broadband technologies
Key Takeaways:
  1. LMR remains the backbone of critical communications, but emerging technologies like 5G, AI, and IoT are starting to reshape the landscape.
  2. There is a significant difference between vendor sales targets and end user budgets, with vendors projecting more aggressive growth in 2024 than end users.
  3. The survey highlights the importance of understanding the nuances between different user groups, including public safety, utilities, transportation, and mission-critical operators.
  4. Video analytics, connected vehicles, and rapid deployment technologies are among the emerging solutions gaining traction.
  5. Cybersecurity remains a top priority, and the industry is in various stages of adoption, with end users evaluating and piloting new technologies like AI and IoT.
