  • Video
  • Podcast

On this episode of TechConnect, host David Sholkovitz speaks with John Verdi, founder of Hey Blue!, to discuss how technology can strengthen relationships between police and the communities they serve. John shares his journey in law enforcement and how those experiences led him to create an app that gamifies positive police-community interactions through points, rewards, and measurable impact. Together, they explore why relationship-building matters for modern law enforcement agencies and how thoughtfully designed technology can help foster trust and connection. This episode offers a unique perspective on tech in policing - less about tactics and more about embracing connection to better serve communities.
