The People Behind
the Platform
Why This Platform Exists
Disasters do not fail communities for lack of solutions. The solutions exist: the shelters, the communications systems, the water purification, the expertise. What the field has lacked is one trusted, shared infrastructure that connects solution providers with the governments, NGOs, and communities that need them: before a disaster, during the response, and through the full arc of recovery.
DisasterMitigation.Solutions is one shared platform for the world's disaster mitigation and resilience solutions, organized around seven Resilience Pillars. It begins with the Global Directory, the foundation for finding, and building on, the providers and solutions. The Intelligence Hub will grow from it as a decision-making tool: solution makers, responders, providers, researchers, governments, agencies, and communities all contribute what they learn, and all draw on what the whole has gathered, turning field experience into coordinated, evidence-based action. Every crisis processed strengthens the dataset. Every contribution enriches the intelligence. The platform compounds in value with each disaster cycle.
Our model is built on partnership: working alongside existing technology providers, relief organizations, research institutions, and field practitioners, not in competition, to co-develop through the Actionable ThinkTank. We bring the shared infrastructure. Partners and collaborators bring the depth. Together, the Intelligence Hub becomes a collaborative commons, built and drawn on by everyone with a stake in resilience, and growing with every contribution towards mitigation.
The Founder
Vicky Stickwood-Hislop, Founder & CEO, Corporate Alliances Inc. · Connect on LinkedIn →
Vicky brings decades of international business development experience to DisasterMitigation.Solutions, with a career built at the intersection of complex technology and the people it serves: from implantable cardiovascular device manufacturing in the 1980s, through enterprise productivity in the 1990s, to the integration of data with streaming media in the 2000s. Across each industry, her work has been the same at its core: connecting capable solution makers with the organizations and communities that need them.
Alongside her professional career, Vicky has led from the front in her own community. As President of the Ladysmith Resources Centre on Vancouver Island, she oversaw the build of a 36-unit affordable housing project through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, an infrastructure for community resilience, delivered under pressure. She continues to provide free technical support helping seniors navigate a technology-dependent world, and serves on the Office of the Seniors Advocate, British Columbia, Council of Advisors.
DisasterMitigation.Solutions brings those two threads together: global business development discipline, applied to the most human of problems: helping communities withstand, respond to, and recover from disaster.
The Company
The platform is developed and operated by Corporate Alliances Inc., a British Columbia, Canada company. Phase I is the Global Directory: one listing per supplier, each with an approve or edit link. The Intelligence Hub and later stages build on it. Development is AI-assisted, enabling capital-efficient delivery at a pace traditional approaches cannot match.
