CALL FOR PRESENTATIONSThe Southern California Chapter of the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE) has issued a call for presentations on cutting-edge fire safety and fire protection practice and tools for its 2020 SoCal Fire Protection Engineering Symposium & Expo to be scheduled in early October, 2020 in Southern California. This is the premier annual educational event for professionals who use science and technology to make our world safe from fire. Presentations will be selected based on quality and relevance to advancing fire safety and fire protection engineering practice. Consideration will also be given to the breadth of knowledge and experience of the presenter. Abstracts should provide sufficient details regarding the demand for and the description of the subject topic to determine the quality and applicability of the fire safety concepts that would be presented. Presentations will be approximately 30-45 minutes in length and should not be about a particular product. Selected presenters will join other leaders in the fire protection profession to create a unique educational experience in Southern California, where the newest fire safety technologies will be exhibited.
