NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, June 11, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- We at GPost Corporation America are proud to announce our new Advisory Board Member, Dr. Paul Sambanis, Adjunct Assistant Professor in Emergency Management and Continuity Planning Program at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health.

Dr. Sambanis joined the GPost Advisory Board on May 11, 2020, with a focus on introducing the gpost Platform to local, state and federal emergency management agencies, private sector risk management groups, and non-profit associations/organizations. Dr. Sambanis will also be instrumental in guiding the GPost leadership in best practices while navigating the 911 industry and community.

"Dr. Sambanis has been a North Star for GPost as we navigate the emergency management space," says Tracy Allan, President and CEO GPost Corporation America. "Paul brings a deep knowledge of our current 911 system to GPost, identifying pathways to success for our team as we engage in this area of expertise. Reducing the chance for harm to our community is at the forefront of the GPost mission, having Dr. Sambanis as an advisor gives GPost great confidence while operating in this area”, adds Allan.

The gpost platform is well known as an innovative, global messaging platform able to send digital messages to hyper-specific geographical locations dynamically. The technology is already being used in several countries by end-users, law enforcement personnel, and organizations with a need to inform their constituency to manage communications better before, during, and after impactful events.

"The free app will satisfy three major gaps in the emergency and risk management field," says Dr. Sambanis. "It can supplement an organization's emergency notification system by notifying relevant people of an impactful event in a dynamically identified area, second it can be used after a disaster to help coordinate much-needed supplies by allowing two-way communication between the user and publisher, and lastly it can allow users to send photos of any damages after a disaster strikes directly to the publisher."
