BOISE, Idaho, Sept. 14, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This year, the annual EMS World Expo—the largest EMS-dedicated event in the world—is going digital but still delivering on its promise to put forward compelling speaking sessions with the best names in EMS education and leadership.
One particular mainstage panel stands out as a must-attend event: “Staying Connected to the Critical Technologies of Modern Emergency Services.” The panel will feature leaders in EMS discussing the critical technologies their departments are using today, and what the future holds for always-on wireless connectivity.
Moderated by Cradlepoint, whose cloud-delivered LTE and 5G wireless networking solutions are used by leading EMS providers around the U.S., the panel insights come at a time when technological advances are at an inflection point and more critical than ever. With the current pandemic and a seemingly endless barrage of natural disasters, first responders are increasing reliant on connectivity to serve their communities faster and more efficiently. Whether working on an ambulance or fire truck or in a pop-up command center on the frontlines, secure, reliable and flexible connectivity is more critical than ever.
