The recent DAN Safety Seminars in Medellín brought together divers, instructors, medical professionals, and industry leaders from across Colombia. 🇨🇴

Hosted with support from DAN Business Members and partners, the seminars featured presentations from Dr. Jaime Aquiles Rincón, hyperbaric physician and researcher, and Francisco Ramos, DAN World Business Liaison. Attendees traveled from Medellín, Bogotá, Cali, and surrounding areas to engage in important conversations around operational safety, decompression theory, and accident prevention.
