CHICAGO, April 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VelocityEHS, the global leader in cloud-based environment, health, safety (EHS) and sustainability software, is hosting its second annual live virtual conference, The Short Conference, on May 12, 2021. The event breaks typical conventions by connecting VelocityEHS subject matter experts, customers and other EHS professionals together directly during intimate and interactive sessions on improving health, safety, ergonomics, and more. This year’s theme, “EHS Technology: The Road Ahead,” focuses on the power of technology to unite, accelerate and transform the way organizational leaders solve problems and achieve their goals.
Matt Airhart, president and chief operating officer of VelocityEHS, kicks off this year’s conference with a keynote address that lays out a vision for the innovation that is possible when technology is created by EHS professionals with deep subject matter expertise and decades of software building experience. Airhart will also show the connection between operational excellence and EHS excellence, and how the company’s software platform is uniquely positioned to deliver on both.
“The events of the last year have proven definitively that EHS programs, and the EHS professionals who run them, are fundamental to operational excellence,” said Airhart. “Attendees will walk away from The Short Conference with practical tips and concrete tools for employing technology and data to control risk, drive sustainability and deliver outstanding outcomes.”
Attendees have the option to register for all or single sessions that tackle the most important topics affecting those in EHS today. Throughout the complimentary virtual event, attendees will be able to ask questions and interact with speakers for a fully immersive experience.
This year’s sessions include:
- How Technology is Transforming EHS
