4. Motivation: Hurricane Scenario  Studies show that ~40% of companies failed within 36 months when they were closed for 3 or more days as a result of a hurricane  Our analysis shows that, if the BCIN network helped 5% of the companies in South Florida to speed up their hurricane recovery by one week, it would prevent $220M of non-property economic losses which would result from that week's closure. 4/21/2015Florida International University4
