About InSPIRE 2023

NAPSG Foundation hosted the 2023 Innovation Summit for Preparedness & Resilience (InSPIRE 2023) on November 16th & 17th at the Dubois Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. The focus of InSPIRE 2023 was The Community in Action and highlighted the exceptional work and real-world impacts of the Public Safety Community. This year, we had 150+ public safety leaders, first responders, GIS professionals, and technologists from 38 states and 6 countries!

InSPIRE is the nation’s leading summit dedicated to advancing the use of geospatial technology for preparedness and resilience. This annual, in-person event brings together public safety leaders, first responders, GIS professionals, and technologists to explore practical solutions to the most prominent public safety policy and technology challenges being implemented across the nation. Programming is designed for federal, tribal, territorial, state, and local governments and is crafted to foster innovation to build a culture of preparedness, strengthen communities, and increase resilience nationwide.
