Leading all-risk solution for challenges faced by Emergency Managers and First Responders signs agreement to operate in the city of Gadsden, Etowah County, Alabama

BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Right on time for hurricane season, Perimeter, the all-hazards collaboration and communication platform built for public safety, announced today that it has executed an agreement with Gadsden in Etowah County, Alabama to utilize its innovative emergency management platform. Perimeter currently supports other counties in California, Nevada, Florida and Michigan.

I would absolutely encourage any Emergency Management Agency, Police Department, Fire Department, and Public Works Department to get on board with Perimeter

Perimeter, an intuitive map-based system, empowers first responders to address the most important aspect of disaster response and recovery, life safety.

The app started as a research project out of UC Berkeley, where its creators first became aware of the need for new communication tools in public safety. Three years later, a team led by Berkeley graduates is continuing to do everything possible to help responders keep themselves and their communities safe.

“We are very happy to be expanding the groundbreaking Perimeter platform technology we have developed into Alabama, just in time to assist with any hurricanes the season may bring,” said Van Riviere, Chief Operating Officer, Perimeter Platform. “Etowah County contends with significant natural disasters including hurricanes, severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding. Perimeter has uses during day-to-day operations as well as disasters. Within less than one day of initial training, Derek and his team utilized Perimeter to support a local event in Gadsden known as ‘First Friday.’ We are eagerly looking forward to supporting Etowah County through these emergencies and hope to expand further into Alabama.”

Derek Mummert, ILEM, Director of Gadsden/Etowah County Emergency Management Agency,
said: “Bailey Farren, Perimeter’s CEO, showed me The Perimeter Platform and how it’s being used on the West Coast, and I knew I wanted to be the first in Alabama to have the product. As Bailey was explaining it, my mind started turning about all the applications that it could be used for. I knew the citizens of Etowah County would benefit from this product, not just during disasters, but during events happening around the county. I am blown away how quickly, and more importantly- how easily — the onboarding process was. The entire onboarding was the easiest transaction I’ve ever experienced- from start to finish. I can’t say enough about Perimeter, not just the product- but the customer service. Every request, question, or inquiry has been answered within an hour or less and has left me feeling heard and satisfied with the response. I would absolutely encourage any Emergency Management Agency, Police Department, Fire Department, and Public Works Department to get on board with Perimeter.”

With no sign-up or opt-in required, individuals can visit Perimeter’s public map to see if they are in an impacted area during an emergency incident and how best to act.

About Perimeter
Perimeter improves the coordination and roll out of safety measures for first responders and the public for any event.

The maps used in Perimeter are real-time and first responders are able to make important decisions regarding evacuation and safety zones and where its most critical to deploy help at any point during the disaster. Perimeter takes geospatial information, like weather reports, and makes it come alive via detailed, interactive maps readily available to anyone during the incident who has a mobile phone. Perimeter has revolutionized the emergency communications system by providing an all-risk solution that enables efficient evacuation management, information sharing, and collaboration across different disciplines and jurisdictions.

It equips every person who has to make a life-or-death decision in a hazardous situation with lifesaving easy-to-use tools that convey critical information in real time. The Perimeter brand emphasizes safety in every communication and at all costs.

The Perimeter solution has been tried and tested many times. Most notably shortly after inception amid the catastrophic flooding in Merced County. Perimeter enabled the constant flow of information that aided with evacuation and the saving of lives.

After every incident, Perimeter conducts after action analysis which features all players reporting on what worked and what could have been done better. Perimeter also works within each county’s alert system and provides links to the systems that present maps pointing out important locations in the respective counties. Sheriff offices in each locale have instant access to critical information thanks to the Perimeter app and use it to respond to public needs accordingly.

CEO and Co-Founder Bailey Farren and team are working to continually expand the reach of Perimeter across the United States.

DataLogix AI Launches Workplace Video Resources for Businesses Exploring AI and Robotics Training

New calculator, business owner guide and inquiry form help companies assess workplace video alongside existing business records.

UNION, N.J., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — DataLogix AI, a division of Trailblaze Solutions LLC, has launched online resources to help business owners explore first-person workplace video for AI and robotics training. The new resources include a workplace-video overview, an adjustable revenue calculator, a business owner guide and an inquiry form for discussing potential fit.

The launch adds a second starting point alongside DataLogix AI’s existing focus on licensing business records. Owners can compare written operating history, such as internal email, chat, tickets and project records, with newly recorded footage showing the hands, tools and steps involved in approved physical tasks. Businesses with both types of activity can explore each separately.

The workplace-video resources describe possible tasks in areas including warehousing, maintenance, construction, production and vehicle service. These examples are discussion starting points, not confirmed eligible categories. The guidance asks owners to review participant consent, recording permissions, safety, equipment and footage acceptance criteria before beginning.

The calculator models a four-week scenario using the number of participating workers, accepted recording hours per worker and an assumed payment rate. Owners can optionally enter employee compensation and other business costs. All figures are illustrative. The calculator does not establish an offered rate, forecast earnings or determine eligibility, and a result after entered deductions is not net profit.

The accompanying guide explains how the two opportunities differ in preparation, rights and economics. It includes questions about who may approve participation, what can be recorded or licensed, who may receive the material and how payment would be determined. Owners can review the resources without uploading company records or workplace footage.

Businesses interested in learning more can use the inquiry form to describe their company and the opportunity they would like to discuss. An inquiry is not enrollment, recording permission or a payment offer. Program availability, equipment and commercial terms require separate confirmation, and payment may be zero.

Society of Women Engineers event introduced young people to science, technology and potential careers in engineering

BOSTON, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — For young people curious about how things work, Boston’s Seaport District became a place of discovery Saturday as students explored the possibilities of engineering through interactive demonstrations, hands-on activities and conversations with professionals from around the world.

The SWENext Innovation Expo, hosted by the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), brought science, technology, engineering and mathematics out of the classroom and into the Westin Boston Seaport District, where students ages 5 to 18 had the opportunity to explore STEM fields in an engaging, accessible environment.

The free, half-day event was part of WE26, the Society of Women Engineers’ annual international conference, held November 5–7 in Boston.

The Expo was designed to introduce younger students to engineering through hands-on demonstrations and activities while providing teenagers with opportunities to explore educational pathways and potential careers in STEM.

For elementary school students, the focus was on experimentation, problem-solving and discovery. Interactive activities encouraged children to explore engineering concepts while demonstrating how science and technology influence everyday life.

Older students had opportunities to connect with professional engineers, SWE members and representatives of collegiate engineering programs. Those conversations introduced students to engineering degree programs, scholarships, tutoring resources and career possibilities they might not otherwise have considered.

The event also offered parents, teachers and other STEM advocates information about educational resources, classroom activities and programs designed to help young people continue exploring science and engineering beyond the Expo.

Although the Society of Women Engineers has long focused on advancing women in engineering and technology, the Innovation Expo welcomed students of all genders, reflecting the organization’s broader commitment to expanding access to STEM education.

The event highlighted the importance of introducing students to engineering at an early age, before they begin making decisions about college majors and career paths. By connecting young people with working engineers and college students, the Expo was designed to make engineering more approachable and demonstrate the variety of opportunities available in technical fields.

The Boston event also provided an opportunity for engineering professionals attending WE26 to engage directly with the local community and share their experiences with students who may represent the next generation of innovators.

For the Society of Women Engineers, the Expo was an extension of its mission to inspire and support future engineers while expanding awareness of the profession.

And for the young people who participated, the event offered an introduction to a field where curiosity, creativity and problem-solving can lead to discoveries that shape the future.

CORAL GABLES, Fla., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NatGold Digital Ltd. (“NatGold” or the “Company”) today announced that it has requested the delisting of the NatGold Token (NATG) from MEXC, a global cryptocurrency exchange where NATG is currently listed, with immediate effect.

The decision follows the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s announcement of an order issued by its Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the Combating Russian Money Laundering Act, prohibiting U.S. financial institutions from processing funds transfers involving MEXC Global.

NatGold is a U.S. company whose wholly owned subsidiary, NatGold Integrity Vault LLC, is registered with FinCEN as a money services business. The Company is acting ahead of the order’s effective date.

NatGold is in advanced discussions with multiple regulatory-compliant exchanges and venues  serving global markets, including the United States, and intends to replace MEXC as soon as possible. Once new listings are confirmed, NATG token holders will be advised of the arrangements and encouraged to register accounts and link their wallets, as applicable, to continue trading.
