2016 ICT4D Conference

What if you could have a secure Android app for your program need in less than an hour? Your program's branding, your app name, your messaging, your language, "your secret sauce!" Benetech, a leading open source software developer based in California's Silicon Valley, is beta testing its new secure app generator with NGOs around the world. Benetech has long focused its strong security capacity on the needs of human rights groups, but believes that built-in security by design has strong application to privacy protection for vulnerable populations. Benetech also hosts the data for these applications in the cloud at no cost, and does not have (or want) the keys to access this confidential data.
We believe that more and more organizations are trying to collect data for their program needs, as well as building a data foundation for larger efforts to measure impact. By making the barrier so low to creating new applications, it will make rapid prototyping of these apps possible. By building on top of great open source technologies, it leverages technology investments by many other groups. And, if your app need is sufficiently distinctive to require software development, you will approach this effort from a position of knowledge and experience about what is required.
Come speak with one of the top technologists in the tech for good movement about your needs and desires for better applications to maximize program effectiveness and social impact.
