On 26 June 2014, the TCCA and PSCE hosted a one-day seminar on the Future of Mobile Communications 2020+.

The seminar was organised to facilitate a discussion on the future changes in the mobile communications society, and the consequences for the mission critical communications requirements of public safety organisations and critical infrastructure operators.

Event hosts were Manfred Blaha, Chair of the PSCE User Committee and Technology Advisor at the Austrian Ministry of Interior, and Hans Borgonjen, Vice-Chairman of the TCCA and Senior Coordinator, International Standardisation for National Police Netherlands.

The day was introduced by Manfred Blaha as a focus on future broadband for critical communications users – to get an idea from the users’ perspective as to how communications will look from the year 2020 and beyond. We all know that communications will be faster, but we don’t know much else. This event was designed to catalyse creativity in the user community, and to give attendees a glimpse into the crystal ball to see the shape of things to come in 2020 and beyond.

Presentations from visionary representatives from Airbus, Cisco, Extend Limits, Microsoft and Motorola Solutions were followed by a panel discussion.

Attendees were asked to note their thoughts on the key points made by each speaker, and this input is summarised in the Appendix.
