Folio3 is proud to announce that one of our developed solutions, the HipLink wireless alert management and messaging platform, is being utilized by the Rio Operations Center, Brazil (COR) to drive their communications, in support of the 2014 FIFA World Cup games being held in the city.
The Rio Operations Center helps coordinate communications between key personnel in many different city organizations and public safety agencies, encompassing 30 agencies and over 2500 devices on a daily operational basis. These include city officials, hotel representatives, FIFA personnel, Maracana stadium officials, power and utility officials, and other World Cup stakeholders. Key individuals within these organizations are receiving messages (via the HipLink platform) about traffic conditions, critical information relating to venues and events, issues of public safety, and any information deemed important by COR.
