OUR
HISTORY.
Cristian León
Founder at DROVID
I am an entrepreneur passionate about nature and technology, and during an excursion to Torres del Paine in 2014, I witnessed a large number of hectares of forest burned in an ancient reserve, and worst of all, because of human beings.
This experience was shocking, and prompted me to delve deeper into the problem with the purpose of finding a solution that could prevent these disasters, but I did not reach a clear conclusion to innovate.

March 2020
That was until the onset of the pandemic, where my previous entrepreneurship was heavily affected by the global stalemate. That period prompted me to reconnect with the problem, taking full advantage of the time to train and develop prototypes of a new methodology that could revolutionize forest fire prevention mechanisms.

Proximity with experts
Throughout this process I was close to experts in the area of forest fire protection of the National Forestry Corporation of Chile (CONAF), and thanks to this, I was able to reach a clear definition of the weaknesses in the area of forest fire prevention and found DROVID Technologies.
