Then the week is so interesting that we end up cutting a lot of news, but also keeping a lot of news. The chaotic process is a work in progress, but it means that the end result is always what we decided we can't not talk about.Here's what we got into:A little URL to IRL update from Natasha, who just got back from an edtech conference.How one VC got hit by ransomware, and why stolen LP data could be a wake up call for investors.The crew chatted through some Cloud 100 numbers, and riffed for a minute on Figma, Gusto, and Mailchimp, companies all reportedly worth around the $10 billion mark.From the early-stage funding round side of things, we noodled on Surfside's $4 million raise, and the capital that Pave recently attracted. Felt also raised money to make maps more mainstream, which had us thinking about use cases galore.In unicorn-land, Trendyol raised a mountain of cash, while UpGrad became India's newest unicorn.Climate change is going to mean lots more companies needed to handle disaster prep, Danny argues. His recent EC-1 here about RapidSOS got into the deep and complex world of three simple numbers: 911.And we ended the show with a riff on Salesforce+, which we had fun with but also tried to take seriously because we are journalists after all.

Jeff has 19 plus years in the public safety working with 911 centers.

At the recent Avaya ENGAGE® event in Austin, TX, Avaya announced unprecedented, life-saving device location and additional data reporting capabilities that are now available as part of Avaya communications solutions for emergency response management providing real-time information that can help make the difference in life or death situations.

The FCC estimates that in 2014, over 10,000 lives could have been saved if only there had been a way for 911 telecommunicators to identify the specific location of 911 callers. It may come as a surprise to many that the technology currently used by 911 systems dates back to the 1960s, and is, therefore, unable to accommodate lifesaving data, such as the location of a caller, the severity of a car crash, or the number of individuals who may be trapped in a burning building.  Considering that over 650,000 911 calls are made across the US every day—many of which are being made by callers who are experiencing the worst moments of their lives—RapidSOS, an advanced emergency technology company, has asked the following question: how do we upgrade these outdated analog voice systems to rich data networks that don't just overload the system with info that isn't ultimately lifesaving? They've spent the past four years holding various focus groups with hundreds of 911 centers across the country and partnering with major tech companies in order to provide this lifesaving data during emergencies. RapidSOS now manages 60 percent of US 911 traffic and provides data to over 2,200 different public safety agencies in major US cities, and have seen response times improve by anywhere from 30 seconds to seven minutes; when even a single second can be the difference between life and death, this technology is rightly considered lifesaving. Michael Martin, founder of RapidSOS, joins the podcast to discuss the implementation of this new technology and their plans for international expansion. Tune in for all the details and visit rapidsos.com for more. 

Kevin sits down with Tracy Eldridge of RapidSOS to talk about a common misconception that 911 telecommunicators know the location of a caller. Tracy discusses RapidSOS’ solution and how they can expand to relay more information than just location.

A team of  “computer nerds” spot a huge hole in emergency services. Their solution may save 10,000 lives a year (or more!). 

In recent months, both Apple and Google have made changes to their software that incorporates technology from a company called RapidSOS.
