The Summit will take place at the Dubai World Trade Centre from 7-9 March 2023, under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. Across three days, six conferences and a comprehensive international exhibition, over 15,000 visitors are expected to join leading experts to discuss the most innovative policing techniques, from crime prevention, anti-narcotics and forensic science to drones and K9.

The Summit will bring together over 230 leading speakers including INTERPOL Secretary General Jurgen Stock, NYPD Commissioner, Keechant Sewell, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Commissioner, Brenda Lucki, LAPD Commander Ruby Flores, and New Zealand Commissioner and Chief Executive, Andrew Coster. These sessions aim to create a global policing community able to meet the future with confidence by using the most innovative technologies and creating part- nerships that enable cooperation and collaboration under international standards. “It is only through collaboration that we can find new ways to overcome today’s policing challenges. That is why the World Police Summit matters, as it is the world’s leading dialogue forum for policing and will help the global policing community come together to build a safer tomorrow,” asserts Christopher Hudson, President of DMG Events.

Underlining the importance of the event Thomas Pramotedham, CEO of Presight AI, says: “AI-powered analytics will shape the future of policing. That is why it is important that we all come together at the World Police Summit to discuss the role technology can play in supporting law enforcement agencies. Together, through collaborative dialogue, we can turn all-source big data from Presight.ai into deep insights for decision-makers to improve policies, refine strategies, and create safer societies.”

The event will also feature over 250 local and international exhibitors who will showcase the latest technologies and innovations used in combating crime. Participating companies include Rafael, Dell, IDEMIA, Beacon Red, Cisco, Canon and many more.

The World Police Summit has attracted some fantastic sponsors, including the UAE’s Executive Office of Anti Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing as a gold sponsor. It has also secured strategic partnerships from INTERPOL, ROADPOL, UNODC, GCCPOL, IACP, UNICRI and other. n
