Emerging Trends in Emergency Management and Homeland Security

2025 has been a year of turmoil when it comes to emergency management. In this
podcast we will be discussing how the future of emergency management will be
shaped from one of the leaders in the profession.

Bryan Koon is the President and CEO of IEM International, Inc., a leading professional
services firm focused on emergency management, disaster recovery, and resilience. At
IEM, he integrates innovative technology and best practices to keep the organization of
900+ employees ready to support communities in preparing for, responding to,
recovering from, and mitigating against disasters.

Before IEM, Koon was the Director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management
(FDEM), where he enhanced Florida’s emergency response capabilities and fostered
public-private partnerships, notably during Hurricane Irma and the Pulse Shooting. As
President of the National Emergency Management Association (NEMA) from 2014 to
2016, he advocated for nationwide improvements in disaster response and resilience,
testifying before Congress on the importance of controlling disaster costs and investing
in mitigation.

Koon serves on the FLASH Board of Directors, promoting policies to reduce disaster
risks and bolster community resilience. His career is marked by a passion for building
resilient communities and developing aspiring emergency managers through higher
education partnerships.
