Keeping up with the modern era
We are pleased to invite you to attend the EMS Conference 2024.
Dates: 21-22 October 2024
Venue: Dräger Auditorium, Woodmead Sandton
Anyone involved in the emergency services, fire fighting and fire safety cannot afford to miss this conference which will focus on the future of this vital service.
Over the past few years we have witnessed significant transformations, bringing about a new era in technology. Embracing this new technology is a key to the success of all emergency services
Until recently, words such as lithium batteries, artificial intelligence, drones, Apps were not part of every day vocabulary, but now they cannot be ignored. They are integrated into the working life of fire fighters and other emergency workers.
Some presentations of the conference will examine:
• The challenges of fighting lithium battery fires – are they pitfalls of new technology?
• Can AI can be used in fire prevention and fire fighting?
• Drones and their uses. Are fire fighters properly trained to operate them?
• Are fire fighters adequately trained to fight fires in modern building structures?
• How can emergency services mitigate the potential catastrophes of climate change?
• The growth of the private fire services. Why and how did they become part of the South African landscape? Are they here to stay?
This conference will focus not only on the importance of reinforcing the familiar, but also on familiarising attendees with the unknown – factors which impact all emergency services / fire fighters / paramedics / rescue teams etc.
After learning from experts in the field, attendees will leave with a wider knowledge, understanding and improved capabilities of what is in store for them in an era when rapidly changing technology cannot be avoided.
