5x5 Interact! Public Safety Scavenger Hunt

Experience public safety solutions firsthand at 5x5 Interact!

Compete in a scavenger hunt that will help you explore Bellevue and the summit as you try out applications. Test the functionalities and capabilities of the solutions so YOU get firsthand insight into their potential application in public safety operations.

What’s in it for you?

  • Trial access to participating technology solutions
  • Hands-on experience using participating technology solutions
  • Opportunity to provide real-world feedback to solution developers after hands-on use.

How it works:

There will be a pre-event huddle on Tuesday, June 25, at 3:30 p.m. CT to ensure all participants are set up with the necessary applications and have the support they may need. The huddle will be at the 5x5 Interact table, which is near the registration area on the second floor. During this time, participants must report any issues, technical difficulties, or safety/other concerns to event organizers.

Pre-event preparation: Let us know you want to participate by signing up below, or visiting us at our table in the demo hall.


Live session kickoff: On Tuesday, join us in Cedar Ballroom B at 3 p.m. to get instructions and technology overviews in our “5x5 Interact: Hands on with public safety solutions” kick-off session.


Scavenger hunt begins: You will have two days to complete as many tasks as you can while you attend sessions and explore Bellevue. Participants will be provided with a list of tasks to complete.


Deep dive user feedback session: Provide feedback to the FirstNet Authority during a deep dive session which will take place on Thursday in Cedar Ballroom A at 3:45. Feedback about solutions will be shared with the relevant solution developers.

What you will need:

  • A mobile device that is not controlled using mobile device management (MDM).
  • A small amount of time during the conference to complete tasks.
  • A sense of adventure!
