FireFlight, an innovative technology startup dedicated to wildfire risk management and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, is making waves in Flagstaff with its upcoming grand opening scheduled for Thursday, May 28. The event will commence at 10 a.m. at Moonshot Headquarters, located at 2225 N. Gemini Dr., and will feature two complimentary workshops aimed at empowering the local community and businesses with cutting-edge knowledge and tools.

FireFlight drone technology in action

Founded in 2023, FireFlight combines expertise in wildfire prevention with AI business solutions. The company uses advanced drone technology and AI analysis to develop comprehensive wildfire protection plans tailored for homeowners and commercial entities. The goal is to help residents and local businesses safeguard their properties and livelihoods from the increasing threat of wildfires.

“Our presence at Moonshot reflects our commitment to Flagstaff’s economic development and climate resilience,” said founder Ariel Strong. “We utilize technology not only to protect our community from wildfires but also to support local businesses grow amid rapid changes.”

Free Workshops to Educate and Empower

The morning session titled ‘The AI Advantage for Small Businesses: So Much More Than Just Marketing’ will introduce small business owners to various ways AI can optimize daily operations and enhance efficiency. The afternoon workshop, ‘Essential Tools for Real Estate Professionals,’ aims to equip real estate agents, home inspectors, and mortgage lenders with strategies to communicate wildfire risks effectively to clients, addressing concerns such as property insurability and mitigation costs.

Both workshops require prior registration, with space limited, and will include refreshments and networking opportunities. Interested participants can register online at fireflight-ai-advantage.eventbrite.com for the morning session and fireflight-essentialtools.eventbrite.com for the afternoon.

“These workshops are our way to share our expertise and introduce FireFlight to the community,” Strong added. For more details, community members can contact Ariel Strong at 928-419-1081.
