COVID-19 IoT Alliance

Disclaimer: Starting July 1, 2021 the COVID-19 IoT Alliance terminates its operation. If you want to implement a socially important project with flespi, please contact us with details.

We are the IoT and Telematics companies willing to synergize in the face of the COVID-19 invasion to minimize its consequences for humanity and the global economy.

Mission

We join forces in order to help national governments, municipalities, NGOs, and other enthusiastic groups across the globe harness the spread of the coronavirus by developing effective complex (hardware + connectivity + software) technological solutions aimed at monitoring and regulating the movement or location of people, assets, and vehicles, controlling the state of protected areas and objects, ensuring public safety, and more.

Projects we support

We, the Alliance members (see the list below), are ready to provide our expertise and resources (servers, GPS equipment, SIM cards, etc.) to craft the following anti-crisis solutions in the shortest term:

Personal tracking

controlling distance from home, controlling distance between people, tracking infected individuals, etc.

Public transport monitoring

passenger counters, passenger identification, route control, etc.

Freight transportation monitoring

transit vehicles control, cargo monitoring

Critical assets monitoring

anti-theft measures for temporarily abandoned places

Monitoring in healthcare

keeping an eye on important appliances, tracking deliveries of highly demanded medicine or products, locating doctors and nurses, etc.

and much more.

Spread the word

If you know anyone struggling to build a solution to fight the coronavirus outbreak in a particular country or region, please encourage them to contact us at info@flespi.com and tell about their project. We’d be happy to consult!

Expectations of the alliance members

No-one of the alliance members is seeking any commercial benefit from the participation in the alliance. Alliance members commit to provide products or services for the projects at cost.

All alliance members are expected to actively seek opportunities and contribute potential project concepts relevant to the alliance profile (telematics- or IoT-based projects).

Each member is using every effort to spread the word about the alliance, its mission, and guiding principles.

Minimal involvement implies:

creating a dedicated page about the alliance on the official website (similar to this page on the flespi website)
adding a textual link saying "COVID19 IoT Alliance" or placing this banner on the main page of the official website that lead to the dedicated page
reposting publications from COVID19 IoT Alliance in the corresponding social networks (FB, LinkedIn) within 24 hours.
