CEO Clark continued:  “Over many years, Synergem has earned a solid and trusted reputation for quality service and technical innovation in Public Safety communications through its thoughtful leadership and innovation as a systems integrator and technical consultant.  With its new name and corporate format, Synergem is embracing its past while also reinforcing and highlighting Synergem’s commitment and continuing evolution as a NG9-1-1 solutions provider, able to adapt, develop and deploy unique and leading edge technology-based products and services for the benefit of the Public Safety 9-1-1 industry and those we serve.”
