When disaster strikes communities do not have time to deploy new technologies. So how do they find out about the tools available on a blue sky day? This year Silicon Valley is coming to you to share how companies work together to aid in times of crisis. Each of the panelists work within their companies to provide impact focused solutions leveraging their companies unique assets. Whether that’s Airbnb’s host community, Twilio’s voice & SMS software, Twitter’s alert capabilities, or Box’s cloud storage, they can all help you be more effective when every second counts.
