"Avoid the safe path" with Daniel Rizzi of We Watch

Today I’m thrilled to welcome to the show Daniel Rizzi, Co-Founder and GC at We-Watch. Daniel’s mission is to help make the world a safer place without compromising people's data privacy or freedoms. To do so, he’s embarked on a unique social enterprise with We-Watch that essentially harnesses the power of community for social and criminal justice.

With the We-Watch app, users can find people who were nearby and witnessed when a specific incident—take, for instance, a vehicle collision—occurs, enabling the user to contact the witnesses to see if they can share observations or media related to the event. From there, the user can consolidate relevant information and media in the We-Watch app, helping them obtain recourse in conjunction with concerned parties and authorities.

It’s a truly innovative and very timely solution that can be a silver bullet for numerous scenarios. But while Daniel is a co-founder in his own right, he’s also an advisor to founders across Canada, helping them raise the capital they need to scale while navigating around any potential legal roadblocks to their success. 

I can’t wait to get his take on the startup scene today, the work he’s doing at We-Watch and what’s on the horizon.
