They started field operations in 2015, and within less than four years have conducted dozens of intelligence-gathering and investigative missions, in 14 countries throughout Africa, Asia and Latin America, on several criminal wildlife supply chains, including ivory, rhino horn, jaguar’s parts, live animals, seafood and other illegal wildlife products.
See them in their two documentaries: The Ivory Game and Sea of Shadows.
PUBLIC SAFETY

This groundbreaking technology is helping keep our public spaces safe from public shootings by using Ai and IoT to detect, notify and mitigate active shooter situations.
EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY
Illuminate Education: https://www.illuminateed.com/
Every minute counts in a student’s learning journey and educators need a real-time, actionable approach for understanding each student’s daily progress and challenges. Illuminate Education is bringing more teachable moments to light by empowering educators with the most powerful visualization of the whole student from one, simple view. Driven by data and insights that reveal both strengths and opportunities for growth that otherwise remain hidden, we increase the power of teaching and the delight of learning.
NONPROFIT INNOVATION

WORLD CHANGING JOURNALISM
Neo4J: https://neo4j.com/graphs4good/
The Panama Papers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panama_Papers) represent one of the world's largest data leaks in history: 11.5 million records exposing a system that enables crime, corruption, and wrongdoing, hidden by secretive offshore companies. Over 400 journalist members of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) worked for a year mining and investigating the data stored in a Neo4j graph database. This resulted in the resignation of the PM of Iceland, Supreme Court hearings for Pakistan's PM, the arrest of people money laundering for Mexican drug cartels, and plenty of more investigations and regulatory reforms.
