Founded in 1993, FreeWave Technologies is a world leader in the innovative design/manufacture of license-free spread spectrum, licensed band radios and wireless data solutions that are trusted for mission critical applications around the world (www.freewave.com).

WHAT: “Wireless Communication Technologies for Distribution Automation: Smart Grid Layers and Players”

Much has been written about the Smart Grid including a myriad of definitions and points of view. Communications has and always will allocate proper distribution of power needed. There are numerous communications players (technologies) that can be deployed across the smart grid applications layers. The “best fit” technology for any one layer or overall system depends on objectives for the system. Decision makers also should factor in the risk profile of the company and their communications requirements will start to take shape.

This presentation is intended to provide a point of view focused solely on the application layers, how they impact the Distribution Layer and support the communications technologies at each layer. Dianich also will provide attendees with specific criteria to consider when selecting a communication technology.

WHERE: 47TH Annual Minnesota Power Systems Conference

Earle Brown Heritage Center

6155 Earle Brown Drive

Minneapolis, MN 55430

WHEN: Distribution Automation/Communication – Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2011 from 9:15 a.m.-10 a.m.

“We were delighted to be chosen as an Ascent Award finalist by the Communication Technology Professionals organization,” said Ashish Sharma, chief marketing officer of FreeWave Technologies. “This award helps promote awareness of the communication industry’s dynamic and competitive nature, while also inspiring other companies and individuals to have a positive impact on Colorado’s economy and local communities.”

CTP has attracted members, participants, sponsors and supporters from across the communications ecosystem, including broadband, mobile, information technology, cable, satellite and unified communications. Through CTP’s encouragement of greater communication and coordination across this ecosystem, the organization helps position Colorado as a preferred location for business expansion.

“It was nearly impossible to pick a winner from our top three finalists,” said Joshua Holmberg, president of CTP.  “While FreeWave didn’t take the top spot for the award, we were impressed with their commitment to delivering world-class radio data communications to a variety of industries.  Each finalist was in very different verticals and each was unique in its approach to the marketplace.  I consider all three finalists as winners, and appreciate FreeWave’s dedication to the Colorado community.”

The Ascent Award is given to the firm that best represents the Colorado spirit of innovation, growth and drive in telecommunications and is poised to make a near-term impact on the industry. Ascent nominees were selected based on assorted criteria and offered for voting from CTP associates. The company must have exhibited exceptional inspiration or insight in at least two of these areas: (a) new technology, (b) changing business models, (c) new products and/or (d) new customers or marketplace; it must have made or will in the immediate future make a meaningful impact on the communications industry; the company must have a significant presence in Colorado; and, should embody the spirit of the Ascent Award showing energy, focus, growth, drive and innovation furthering communications technology.
