Mark Gabriel and Erik Durr are the co-founders of AMPware.
In 2005, Gabriel and Durr were both directly affected by Hurricane
Katrina. Separated from loved ones, they relied solely on their cell phones to keep in contact with friends and family.

This disaster became the inspiration for the AMPware Case, a way to keep a smartphone powered in any situation.
Durr
and Gabriel met while engineering students at Louisiana State University in Baton
Rouge. They have worked together as technical leads on several startups since they met in 2008.
They are committed to making this product reality and they have been through many design concepts to get to this point.
