Delos is a digital property insurance provider for homeowners in catastrophe areas. Insurance is difficult to find in high risk regions; few insurers write in these areas and the ones that do are expensive and slow. One main cause for this problem is low resolution catastrophe models, which have caused regular insurers to pull out of high risk areas. Our team has extensive experience in data science and aerospace engineering and is creating new, higher-resolution catastrophe models. We use these models to create a new home risk rating system. We will also use our models to innovate on product, actively managing our client's risk and helping them prepare for their likely perils.

Gridware exists to enhance and protect the mother of all networks: the electrical grid. The grid touches everything grinds to a halt, and the consequences can be dire: wildfires burn, land is destroyed, property is damaged, progress stops, and lives are lost. Our team engineers an advanced sensing system to continuously analyze both the electrical and mechanical behavior of grid assets. Utilizing high precision sensor arrays, the system identifies and allows preemptive mitigation of faults. Our technology has been proven with utilities to bolster safety, reliability, and reduce customer outage durations. The demand for power will only increase. We protect the grid of today while we build the grid of tomorrow. Gridware is privately held and backed by the best climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors. We are headquartered in the Bay Area in northern California.

Instinct is bringing data to previously untapped markets to improve land management and help fight climate change. Wildfires in the U.S have increased six-fold in frequency and twelve-fold in size over just 30 years. Natural resource management industries like forestry and agriculture, conduct a variety of operations on their lands to both manage their resources and specifically to mitigate the wildfire risk. These are some of the oldest industries in the world, and have typically relied on past experience to make decisions and carry out operations. But these operations can be risky, and with climate change making environmental conditions more volatile than ever before, there isn't room for guess-work anymore. That's why Instinct is developing ground-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for environmental monitoring and wildfire detection. Forestry and natural resource management is largely done by hand. The telemetry platform we are creating is compatible with many different off-the-shelf sensors. Subject to data and power constraints, the system can tackle countless environmental monitoring applications. Some exciting ones we are providing to customers include soil monitoring (soil moisture, nutrients, conductivity, etc), acoustic wildlife surveying, and microclimate monitoring. On the software side, sleek and robust mobile and web apps not only allow users to view their environmental data from anywhere in real-time, but also make deployment and management of their devices incredibly easy. A versatile alarm system means users don't even need to be glued to their screens, and also means they can adapt and respond to changing environmental conditions incredibly effectively. We aim to become the one-stop shop for all environmental data needs for natural resource management industries.

Megafire Action has one mission: to end the megafire crisis within a decade. In the last 40 years we’ve seen a new type of fire emerge: Megafire. Megafires burn 100k acres or more, often with an intensity that devastates ecosystems. And they’re getting more common every year: 17 of California’s 20 largest fires have happened in the last 20 years. Megafire Action is the first organization focused solely on enacting policies to solve this crisis. We want prevention and mitigation to get the same focus as suppression and emergency response. Getting there will mean bringing good fire back into Western ecosystems and creating thousands of jobs in rural communities. We’ll also need to improve our ability to detect, track, and predict megafire behavior. Megafire is solvable, but we need solutions that meet the scale and urgency of the problem. A lot needs to happen and we’re going to hold policymakers accountable for progress.
