Cortech Developments’ key focus as a business is to assist today’s practising professionals to mitigate risk by dint of employing smarter interoperability. The company’s recent Forum – for which Risk Xtra served as the Official Media Partner – brought together end users in order for them to share experiences, widen their scope of knowledge and learn the latest techniques and guidance, as well as witness live fire and integration demonstrations.

The forum jointly hosted with BOSCH, was held at Cortech Developments’ head office near Knutsford in Cheshire on Wednesday 25th September and ran from 9.30am through until 2.30pm. The event was designed to challenge attending delegates to consider how they might use their existing systems and new technology alike to deliver greater benefits and value for their organisations as well as looking at what does the future hold for CCTV intelligence and fire integration.

A further objective on the day was for delegates to share experiences among their peers, widen their scope of knowledge and learn about Best Practice with a view to maximising their value out of Datalog.
