Founder & CEO, PubSafe | Disaster Response Technologist & Volunteer Emergency Responder
Follow on LinkedInEron Iler is the founder and CEO of PubSafe, a community disaster response platform dedicated to connecting citizens, NGOs, and Community Emergency Response Teams (CERTs) in real time during emergencies. With deep roots in volunteer disaster response, Eron has spent years at the intersection of frontline community service and transformative technology — working to ensure that when disasters strike, no one faces them alone.
Eron's journey into emergency preparedness technology stems from hands-on experience as a volunteer responder, where he witnessed firsthand the fragmented communication, delayed coordination, and resource gaps that cost lives during critical events. That experience became the foundation for PubSafe — a platform built not just by a technologist, but by someone who has stood in the field and understood the mission from the ground up.
Bridging People, Organizations & Technology
Through PubSafe, Eron has championed a vision where citizens, public safety agencies, NGOs, and CERT teams operate as one unified network during floods, wildfires, tornadoes, hurricanes, and other large-scale emergencies. The platform enables real-time incident reporting, volunteer coordination, damage assessment, resource deployment, and seamless communication — all from a single, accessible ecosystem.
