Turin Airport Looks to Everbridge for Enhanced Passenger Safety and Faster Emergency Response

Glendale, Calif. – Jan. 28, 2014 – Everbridge, the leading provider of critical communication solutions, today announced that SAGAT, the Turin Airport operator, will use Everbridge to help manage airport emergency procedures for the safety and security of their customers and staff.

Serving over three and a half million passengers and overseeing more than 50,000 flights in 2012, Turin Airport makes the safety of passengers its primary objective. The Everbridge system will be used to reduce the time for airport operational safety procedures to be put into action and support improvements in the emergency notification process to all staff, organizations, and agencies involved in rescue operations.
