Elizabeth Parks, President and CMO, Parks Associates, will be presenting during the SIW webinar, "Solutions for Safer Schools Using Emerging Security Technologies" on Wednesday, June 7 from 1-2 PM ET.

Several new technology trends are taking hold in the K-12 space as administrators and facility managers across the country seek out new ways to better secure their schools and protect their students. In turn, integrators are being asked to present the most robust and forward-thinking technologies available to meet these demands. However, while some technologies can be shared across all schools, several solutions are specific to the type of building, location and use of a campus. To help security professionals consider cutting-edge solutions for the campuses they serve, here are a few “challenge and solution” scenarios that have become more common over the past few years in terms of K-12 security solutions.

 Elizabeth Parks, President and CMO, Parks Associates, will be speaking at ESX on the main stage for the OpenXchange Breakfast on June 6 from 8:30-9:45 AM ET and leading the panels, "The Expanding Case for Personal Emergency Response Systems" on Tuesday, June 6, 10 - 11:15 AM ET and "The Rising Tide of Proptech in Multifamily" on June 7 from 3:30-4:45 PM ET.  

The OpenXchange Breakfast is where we talk about the newest-of-the new: technologies, services, and go-to-market strategies—and the changing competitive landscape that will influence the direction of our industry.

Most adults prefer to age in place and Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) offer solutions to help family and primary care givers extend aging in place for adults as long as possible. However, this is more than the traditional “I’ve fallen and can’t get up” opportunity we’ve grown to expect. Mobile PERS (mPERS) has opened up the market, allowing us to GPS track an individual — meaning keeping up with children, lone workers, and creating a vast more sophisticated telehealth opportunity.

Proptech (property technology) is taking multifamily (apartments/condos) to a new level. Proptech provides a more thoughtful future for building owners, managers, and residents. Essentially, it’s changing the customer experience as it relates to security, comfort, and convenience, while providing owners and managers with a more streamlined operation and hyper-personalized resident experience.

The ESX Electronic Security Expo is a meaningful event open exclusively to the pro-installer and integrator and is designed to allow passionate professionals the ability to learn more, share more and interact more.
