"The overwhelmingly positive response to this event underscores the need for best-in-class technology solutions among EHS leaders in Latin America. We were honored to collaborate with ASSE and Johnson Controls to meet this growing need in the region."
"The event provided Monterrey's business leaders with insight into the future of the industry and the role that health and safety will play in a company's success," said Elizabeth Castellanos, president of ASSE's Member Section in Mexico and manager of Safety, Health, and Environment at Heineken. "By expanding ASSE's presence in Mexico through this forum and future networking events, health and safety leaders will have access to the professional development resources they need to succeed."
