FPE Executive Leadership Series: James Golinveaux, President/CEO Viking Group James E. Golinveaux TITLE: Advancing Technologies in a Regulated World ABSTRACT: Predicting where suppression technology will be in five to ten years is a pretty simple task, getting there is not so easy. This lecture will track new innovations in suppression technology and explain the delays associated with regulations/standards.
