We speak with John Kilburn, Regional Industry Leader of SAS, Silver Sponsor at the World Police Summit 2025, held at the Dubai World Trade Centre 13-15 May.
As the Regional Industry Leader – Law Enforcement and Public Safety at SAS, John leads the development and strengthening of partnerships with Law Enforcement and Public Safety agencies across emerging markets in EMEA and the Asia Pacific region. The role involves driving SAS engagement with heads of investigation, agency leaders, and transformation officers, assisting to revolutionize their digital investigative and intelligence culture through the rationalisation and adoption of cutting-edge technology.
With a distinguished 27-year career in Law Enforcement, John served as a Detective Senior Sergeant with the Queensland Police Service, where he specialized in criminal investigations, security intelligence, and counter-terrorism.
In the late 1960s, eight Southern universities came together to develop a general purpose statistical software package to analyze agricultural data. NC State had always been a leader in developing code for analyzing agricultural data. It was a natural fit to house the project at the university’s Cox Hall because the mainframe there could process enormous amounts of data.
The resulting program – the Statistical Analysis System – gave SAS both the basis for its name and its corporate beginnings.
Since then, SAS has grown to become one of the largest privately held software companies in the world.
