5x5 Resource Center

See how we pull the future forward

Since 2010, PSCR has gathered annually with their wide network of stakeholders in state, local, and federal government, industry, and academia to share their research, get feedback from the community, and connect people around the communications technology issues of our nation's first responders. Use this resource center to access agendas, presentations, and attendee lists from previous stakeholder meetings. Each year has brought new announcements, breakthroughs, and publications. 

In 2023, PSCR partnered with the First Responder Network Authority to host 5x5: The Public Safety Innovation Summit. “Five by five” is a verbal communication over the radio that confirms a strong signal, and that the recipient understands the message. PSCR and the FirstNet Authority determined that each year, 5x5 will be a gathering place to make voices heard and drive public safety communications forward. Whether a public safety professional, an academic, a government official, or an industry leader, 5x5 is an opportunity to be a part of something extraordinary. At 5x5, attendees are able to try out the latest innovations in public safety communications technology; learn how technology is being used in the field today; share ideas with fellow leaders; and design the future of responder communications.
