Where Leadership, Operations & Technology Meet.
The fire service has proudly boasted the phrase, “Two hundred years of tradition unimpeded by progress,” but the fire service has employed more research, data, and technology over the last decade than ever before. In this new age of technology, progressive fire service leaders now demand “data-based decision-making,” for not only organizational management decisions, but also on-scene emergency response operations. To meet this demand, plus focus on the changing needs and expectations of what attendees are seeking in an event experience, Firehouse magazine is pleased to announce a completely re-imagined approach to training, education, and networking.

Why Charleston?
Locating this new event in Charleston, where the department lost nine firefighters in the tragic 2007 Sofa Super Store fire, allows us to honor the Charleston 9 and showcase the efforts to advance firefighter safety and health while looking at proven and new technologies that can assist today’s firefighter. The Charleston Fire Department is like the Phoenix that rose from the ashes, giving a rebirth to the members of the department, and the American fire service, while challenging the way missions were accomplished. Two decades later, technology has had a major impact on the way departments operate, from fireground and EMS responses to personnel and training management.
