Iquitos, Peru, October 8, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), a multilateral body supporting economic growth in the Asia-Pacific, held a two-day workshop on public alerts and warnings in Iquitos, Peru earlier this week. Pulsiam representative Holly Blanks, Director of International Business Development, was invited to speak on a panel discussing best practices in interoperability, technology, and governance behind effective early warning systems.
"It was an honor to be asked to speak," commented Blanks earlier this morning. "Early warning systems are an essential part of disaster management and response, and integrating that technology directly into resource management applications, like our SafetyNet Computer-Aided Dispatch software, is paramount to ensuring a quick and accurate response to any natural disaster."
