ABOUT PANEL:
Enhanced research & data without surveillance enables urban planners, architects, designers, engineers, insurers, & builders with information they need to build more resilient communities. Learn how Yard-based entrepreneurs are developing data-based products to support data-driven solutions that both create pathways to immediately respond to climate change while also fostering pathways & research that lead to improved design & technology for the future. Join our three panelists as they discuss their work & the ways in which they would see their technologies & research applied both today & tomorrow.
