<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">Do you have an app idea for assisting first responders in the field? Are you interested in building apps to help law enforcement, fire and EMS?</H2>
Then please join us for this special FirstNet, Built with AT&T, Hackathon.  With FirstNet – the only communications tool dedicated to public safety – law enforcement, fire, and EMS personnel have the reliable communication services and highly secure data connections they want. Now they need mobile apps to help them respond to emergencies, fight crime, and make our communities safer.
This is an important market with many opportunities for developers. By hacking for first responder mobile apps, developers can mature their ideas, get involved in an exciting community, and create something to further the greater social good.
