Look forward to engaging with @IAFFofficial and other public safety leaders to provide indoor location 3D solution that will improve safety and save lives. #PNT #GPS @NextNav @FCC

Important development in the effort to protect first responders. The International Association of Fire Fighters, representing more than 360,000 firefighters, recently filed comments with the FCC highlighting a critical gap: GPS limitations indoors mean first responders often can't be located with precision when they need help most.

2025 was a pivotal year for PNT resiliency. Across public safety, national security, and critical infrastructure, the conversation shifted from why resilient PNT is needed to how quickly it must be delivered. This year, NextNav worked alongside first responders, policymakers, and industry partners to help turn urgency into action.

This is a big step forward to providing a 3D complement and backup to GPS. Time to get to work to address this critical national security issue. #PNT #GPS @BrendanCarrFCC @OliviaTrustyFCC
NextNav@NextNav

Today we announced that NextNav will commence operations of a 5G PNT Network in Santa Clara County, California, as early as December 11. Network operations of positioning, navigation and timing applications represent the next milestone toward commercial readiness and the mission to deliver a resilient complement to GPS. This network will mark the first real-world demonstration of a 5G-powered backup to GPS. Read the full release here: nextnav.com/begin-operatin… #5G #PNT #GPS #TechNews

A GPS outage could cost the U.S. economy $1.6 billion per day. With jamming & spoofing increasing globally, the need for resilient #PNT systems has never been clearer. Our CEO, Mariam Sorond, shares insight in her latest @ForbesTech piece. forbes.com/councils/forbe…

Thank you to @fairfaxcounty Fire & Rescue Department for hosting the “First Responder Indoor Tracking Summit” earlier this week. The message from across the National Capital Region was unmistakable: accurate, reliable location data saves lives. The experts’ voices spoke for themselves, and the takeaway is clear: public safety needs accurate, interoperable, standards-based location capabilities across networks and devices. For us at #NextNav, it was a powerful reminder of why our work matters and why delivering resilient, #5G-powered #3D #PNT is essential to helping first responders make the best mission-critical decisions possible.
