South Florida Business Continuity:
Communications and Safety Initiatives
Protecting your business assets and supporting
the goals of emergency preparedness programs go
hand in hand. This month’s WITI program focuses
on strategic services for business continuity,
including communications and safety initiatives
by Time Warner Telecom, American Red Cross, and
Department of Health. On June 17th WITI is
partnering with ACP – Association of Contingency
Planners, whose organization is comprised of
business continuity executives and professionals
in the field who set emergency response and
recovery trends. Our event sponsor is Time
Warner Telecom.
Important for your Business Continuity

measured by service interruption. In an

for survivability to connect people and
organizations through protected networks. Our

Gaffney, Vice President and General Manager of
the Florida region, will talk about
next-generation technology and the solutions
designed to support and protect the growing
infrastructure of the South Florida networks.
