Cellebrite has been a longstanding partner of The Exodus Road, providing crucial digital forensic and investigative technology that has resulted in freedom for hundreds of survivors of trafficking. Through Operation Find Them All , a landmark commitment to leverage its technology to find and rescue survivors, Cellebrite reaffirmed its dedication to freedom.
In addition to the Presenting Sponsors, Valor Home Loans and Springhill Suites/Element Downtown Colorado Springs stepped in as Gold Level Sponsors, with Streamhome Construction and Summit Group Colorado sponsoring at the Silver Level.

Together on Freedom's Frontier will offer attendees an opportunity to learn more about the innovative techniques and cutting-edge technology the organization is implementing to fight trafficking in Colorado. In addition to highlighting the urgent needs and crucial ways to meet those needs, the event is an opportunity to celebrate the progress already made.
