    Led · Series A · Aug 2011

    eVigilo designs and develops a fully integrated mass alert platform intended to reach millions of people in seconds to improve personal safety. The platform receives event input from multiple sources, both human interfaces and sensors, and sends geo-targeted alerts to legacy and next‑generation channels including mobile, TV (DVB), radio (DAB), email, smartphone apps and social networks. Its solution has been deployed by the Israeli Home Front Command as part of the “National Message” project and by the Chilean government as the core of its national earthquake and tsunami warning system. The company reports activities in more than 30 countries worldwide. eVigilo recently closed a $3M Series A and intends to use the proceeds to expand its sales and marketing activities into international markets. Led by CEO Guy Weiss, the company focuses on multi-channel dissemination for national-scale alerts.
