Emergent 3's New Strategic Investment
Emergent 3, commonly referred to as E3, is revolutionizing the way organizations handle emergency situations. Recently, the company secured a strategic investment from Arthur Ventures, an early growth capital firm focused on B2B software companies. This partnership aims to deliver vital resources and direction as E3 expands its footprint in various sectors, including K-12 education, healthcare, and government.
With a user base exceeding 100,000 and engagement from over 1,000 school districts, hospitals, and governmental entities across 48 states, E3 stands out as a premiere platform in emergency situational awareness and response. Unlike conventional safety tools that merely notify users of a crisis, Emergent 3 provides comprehensive data-driven insights during these crucial moments, helping organizations determine safe exits, assess evacuation needs, track personnel, and prepare responders with necessary information ahead of their arrival.
Innovative Features for Enhanced Safety
E3 has recently introduced two significant features aimed at improving safety in academic settings.
Roll Call is a sophisticated student accountability tool designed to integrate seamlessly with a district's existing student information systems. This allows school administrators to quickly ascertain which students are safe, which may be unaccounted for, and prioritize their search during emergencies.
The second feature,
Reunification, streamlines the process of safely reuniting students with their parents post-emergency. It helps document each step of the reunification, ensuring a verified record of each student’s return to safety. These innovations complement E3’s original suite of tools including Smart Maps, location-specific alerts, first responder access, and drill management functions.
A Commitment to Safety and Progress
PK Keller, the founder of E3, expresses the personal motive behind the creation of this platform, stating, "We built this as dads who wanted something better for our own kids." He highlights the vision of creating an accessible, comprehensive school safety platform that functions effectively and simply. The positive reception from educators and first responders underscores the success of this mission.
Dalton Mickelsen, the CEO of E3, reflects on the motivation behind his commitment to the company, saying, "After helping grow another software company, I wanted to build something with real purpose." E3 remains dedicated to serving meaningful markets, particularly in ensuring safety where it counts the most during emergencies.
