MedAire has returned to its roots providing remote medical solutions, on-board medical equipment and crew education in emergency medical procedures, serving a core market in the aviation and maritime industries.
As the U.S.-based company integrated with its new parent group International SOS (ISOS), there has been learning curve in which the two companies spent time understanding each other’s clients and markets and how to make the most efficient use of the products and resources of each. A barrier to that effort was eliminated last fall when MedAire (Booth No. 360) was de-listed from the Australian Stock Exchange, allowing a more complete sharing of information. It was a move that made MedAire founder and chairman Joan Sullivan Garrett and ISOS the two largest shareholders in the company, and allowed the elimination of considerable costs associated with the stock listing.
