“We are thrilled to be recognized as one of the leading teams in this prestigious competition,” says Alex Deslauriers, CEO of FireSwarm Solutions Inc “With 2023 being the worst fire season on record in Canada, many people witnessed fires advancing toward their homes and businesses and felt helpless to do anything about it. The destruction was unprecedented. On August 18, 2023, our own family experienced the total devastation of a Rank 6 wildfire firsthand when a fire tornado uprooted ancient trees and obliterated everything in its path. At that moment, I knew I would dedicate my career to making a significant difference in the fight against wildfires. Qualification in the XPRIZE Wildfire Competition is a testament to the commitment, innovative spirit, and momentum of our team and co-founders, David Thanh and Melanie Bitner.”

FireSwarm™ will be pre-positioning and deploying autonomous drone swarms for rapid, precise wildfire suppression.
