Upstream speaks at Motorola Innovation Summit: Vision 2020

Motorola Solutions hosted a week long innovation summit, Vision 2020, to explore insights, trends and inspiration for making the jobs of first responders safer and easier. The event consisted of dialogue with key customers, internal presentations, and key notes from external thought leaders. Upstream’s Tim Sweeney, a former alumni of Motorola, spoke about his experiences in applying design thinking for systemic change. His talk was contextualized by highlighting how Motorola might use similar approaches to provide solutions for developing trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve.

“It was amazing to see how much progress the innovation team has made over the past decade. They have an opportunity to push things even further and provide greater value to the first responder community. I’m eager to see what the future holds for them, and it was great to catch up with so many good friends and former colleagues.”
