Big thank you to Pacific Gas and Electric Company and the Edison Electric Institute for hosting their Wildfire Conference this week, and for organizing the trip today to Briones Regional Park to see wildfire tech in the field! We are honored to partner with Overstory, Watch Duty and PG&E to help protect CA communities, and appreciate the opportunity to showcase how utilities are deploying Treeswift to identify and manage wildfire risk. Quote of the day from one of the field supervisors, in response to a question about Treeswift's tech and how it's received in the field: "It has greatly increased the joy at work." Also heard from someone who was seeing the tech for the first time: "This is an Admin for the arborist!"

I’m attending and exhibiting at DTECH this week in San Diego! ☀️ Come swing by Treeswift's booth at UL110 to see a product demo and learn more about how we’re helping the largest utilities in the country tackle critical challenges like wildfire risk reduction, field inspection efficiency, and post-storm response. Connect with my awesome colleagues Frank Gorke and Michael Wozniak at the booth, and send me a note if you're here and want to catch up! Excited to see some familiar faces :)

As always, #TreesAndUtilities was fantastic! Highlights for us from the booth: 🌲 Having folks that have deployed our technology in the field to improve their day-to-day work come up and tell us how much it's helped them out 🪶 Having people try on the backpack for the first time and be blown away at how light it is 🪄 Demoing our software to people for the first time and watching their eyes widen at the kind of results they could get deploying Treeswift on their system as well It's wonderful to connect and re-connect with so many of our great partners, friends, and colleagues from around the #vegetationmanagement and #utility #arborist community. Thanks to Utility Arborist Association and the Arbor Day Foundation for putting in all the work to make this possible every year. Already can't wait for next year in PDX!
