SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Axon (Nasdaq: AAXN), the global leader in connected law enforcement technologies, announced today that its second annual Axon Accelerate conference has filled all 500 seats. Due to continued demand for attendance, Axon is opening up 50 additional seats for law enforcement officers and public safety professionals to attend the user conference June 19-20 in Scottsdale, AZ. To secure a ticket visit: www.axon.com/conference.

The Axon Accelerate conference includes a certification program, innovation workshop and user conference featuring sessions from industry leaders who will cover topics like effective evidence management strategies, body camera policy trends and crisis communications. Attendees will leave the event having exchanged ideas and best practices with some of the most engaging minds in their field, and with new knowledge about the rapid acceleration of technology in law enforcement.

To improve upon last year's inaugural conference, Axon is offering participants the chance to create their own agenda by choosing from the more than 40 sessions available this year. This allows attendees to gather the information that is most beneficial for their agencies and communities.

"Accelerate is one of the year's most exciting events for Axon. It allows us to help our customers get the most out of our technology and collaborate together with them on future innovations," says Axon Founder and CEO, Rick Smith. "We are constantly working to change the face of police technology, and we relish any opportunity to discuss current and future technologies with the brave men and women our company serves."

Furthering Axon's commitment to deliver innovative solutions for the problems facing law enforcement, Smith will host a hands-on Innovation Workshop following the Axon Accelerate conference on June 22. The workshop will allow a select group of law enforcement leaders to help craft Axon's product roadmap with creative exercises and one-on-one product discussions with Axon's engineering and design teams.
