President and Chief Operating Officer, ESO Solutions, Inc, Sam Brown’s statement

Brown shared: “I started my career in the fire service when I was 15, and to this day, I still volunteer at my local department every Sunday.

“I see the challenges our customers face because I face them too.

“That perspective shapes everything I do at ESO, from the processes we build to the partnerships we forge.

“ESO is uniquely positioned to turn industry knowledge and best practices into actionable intelligence.

“As President, I’m focused on putting those insights into practice at scale to drive measurable improvements in outcomes for the communities we serve.”

As Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President of Communications, Agnelli will play a key role in amplifying ESO’s mission and platform impact across the broader market.

Her promotion aims to reflect the significant strides ESO has made in supporting customers and the industry across emergency response and healthcare.

Strengthening the evidence base through consequential research and elevating how data informs decision-making across the emergency continuum.

Agnelli explained: “At the core of everything we do at ESO is a commitment to improving health and safety outcomes through the power of data.

“My role is to ensure that the breakthrough innovation happening across our platform- and the ecosystem we support- reaches the people who need to hear about it, from data interoperability and connectivity to research and insights that drive smarter responses.

“When we communicate what ESO data makes possible, we advance the industry’s understanding of what emergency response can and should become.” 
  
The announcement builds on the appointment of Susan Young as Chief Financial Officer, ESO’s strategic partnership with The International Academies of Emergency Dispatch and the launch of ESO’s NERIS solution, which integrates dispatch and clinical data to deliver intelligent workflows for fire agencies across 48 states and territories.

Together, these milestones underscore ESO’s commitment to advancing outcome-driven intelligence as a connected system across the full emergency continuum.
