The digital initiatives that were born after the floods in Valencia
The flood tragedy in Valencia has left a deep mark, but it has also highlighted society’s solidarity and capacity for innovation. In the midst of adversity, digital initiatives have emerged that demonstrate that technology can be a powerful tool to help others.
Anem!: Solidarity mobility in times of crisis
In response to the need for mobility in a region affected by floods, “Anem!” was created, a platform that connects people in need of transportation with those who offer rides in their vehicles. Developed in record time by the startup GuruWalk, this initiative has facilitated thousands of trips in just a few days.

Tucochedana.es: Searching for lost vehicles
On the other hand, René Molina Ávila, a student at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, created Tucochedaña.es, a platform that allows people to register found vehicles and owners to search for theirs. This tool has been very useful for many people who have lost their cars due to the floods.
