It’s Resilience Week, San Francisco!
Excited to see you at the events around town and at the @RedSkySummit .
This week we're asking: how do we protect our communities from natural disasters, infrastructure failures, and even AI-driven crises?

It’s Resilience Week in San Francisco!
The @RedSkySummit (happening Wednesday at @FortMasoninSF) started as a small dinner hosted by @billclerico in 2021, and today, it brings together 600+ leaders working on wildfire, from fire chiefs to utility CEOs to Senators.
Since 2021, venture investment in Firetech has passed $1 billion, up from effectively zero a decade ago — and we’re proud that Red Sky helped make that possible.
But wildfire is one hazard among many. The US now sees a billion-dollar disaster roughly every two weeks, up from one every 82 days in the 1980s.
The people working on flooding, extreme heat, and grid resilience are where wildfire was five years ago: growing momentum, emerging budgets, and no real community yet.
And that’s why we soft-launched Resilience Week this year.View quoted post on X
