Microsoft Partner Stage

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, the UK’s emergency services are on the brink of a technological revolution. In this thought-provoking session, ANS explores how AI is redefining the way police, fire, and ambulance services operate enhancing decision-making, improving response times, and ultimately saving lives.
We’ll dive into real-world use cases already making an impact across Blue Light Services, from predictive policing and AI-assisted triage to drone-enabled fire assessments. But with innovation comes responsibility. This session will also unpack the ethical, technical, and governance challenges that must be addressed to build public trust and ensure AI is used safely and transparently.
Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of:
• The future of AI in emergency services and the evolving governance landscape
• Practical examples of AI in action across policing, fire, and ambulance services
• How to build trust in AI through transparency, ethics, and human oversight
• The technical foundations emergency services need to adopt AI effectively
Whether you're a tech leader, public sector innovator, or emergency services professional, this session will equip you with the insights needed to navigate the AI-powered future of public safety.
