How Icom Solved Real-World Challenges at IWCE

When cities plan parades for Super Bowl champions or ski resorts need to link radios across miles of mountain terrain, there’s no time for trial-and-error communications. That’s why Icom America brought real-world solutions to the forefront at the 2025 International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE), showcasing how their versatile technology helps organizations solve critical operational challenges—without blowing their budget or starting from scratch. With the radio communications market expanding rapidly, Icom’s emphasis on flexible migration paths over full system replacements offers a model that’s both financially and operationally smarter.

So, how can agencies and enterprises upgrade their radio systems without pulling the plug on operations or their budgets?

That’s the question at the heart of this episode of Radios In Action, hosted by Icom Inside Sales Manager Tim Price. He’s joined by fellow Icom Sales Manager Jon Paul Beauchamp for a conversation that explores the real-world applications and advantages of Icom’s solutions, straight from the floor of IWCE.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why migration paths beat forklift upgrades for long-term efficiency and lower financial strain
  • How Icom radios helped power emergency communications during Philadelphia’s Super Bowl victory parade
  • Real-world examples of Icom’s technology blending digital, LAN, and LTE systems to create seamless communications, from ski resorts to city operations
