Alexandria, Va. – On Sunday, April 28, 201­3, representatives from APCO International, APCO Australasia, British APCO, and APCO Canada met for the Presidents Council meeting of the APCO Global Alliance in Manchester, England.

The Alliance agreed unanimously to support APCO’s new public safety application website, AppComm, and have consented to submit apps to be included on the website.

“APCO appreciates the support and continued partnership of the Global Alliance and looks forward to its participation in growing the AppComm community,” said APCO International President Terry Hall. President Hall continued “by supporting AppComm, the Global Alliance opens the site up to first responders across the globe, providing valuable insight on apps that ultimately benefit public safety.”

APCO launched AppComm on April 23, 2013 for the purpose of providing a single, trusted online forum dedicated to public safety and emergency response apps for use by the general public, app developers and first responders.
