CHICAGO, March 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VelocityEHS, the global leader in cloud-based health, safety and environment (HSE) solutions, will join more than 150 health and safety leaders from around the world at the Verdantix 2018 HSE Summit Europe in London, UK. Roger Bottum, vice president of strategy at VelocityEHS, will deliver the keynote address at the summit’s annual HSE Innovation Awards Dinner.
In his remarks, titled Innovation for All: Driving EHS Innovation at Scale, Bottom will be shining a light on accessible EHS innovations, which is of particular interest to Summit attendees who come from a wide range of industries to learn about best practices for selecting, implementing and getting value out of HSE software solutions. The event also provides attendees an opportunity to build connections with industry peers and to demo a broad array of HSE solutions, including the VelocityEHS platform, named a Leader in the Verdantix 2017 Green Quadrant Analysis.
“This is an exciting time to be in HSE. New software and other technological innovations are making it both possible and affordable to resolve many of the oldest and most challenging HSE issues,” said Bottom. “While a lot of attention is being given to advancements like drones and the Internet of Things (IoT), the most progress in HSE comes from putting easy-to-use HSE resources in the hands of frontline employees to simplify data collection, improve communication, and automate reporting. Tackling HSE basics with cloud solutions and mobile apps puts real time information in the hands of managers so they can make better decisions on the fly. Everybody wins.”
