An Entrepreneurial Approach to Wireless Mesh Networking
Brough Turner Alum
Wed Jan 27, 01-05:00pm, 56-154
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event
We outline a new approach to ubiquitous wireless Internet connectivity, based on "Freemium" business models and next generation wireless mesh technology. Then help us flesh out plans in a series of interactive sessions that dive into the diverse technical and business issues a startup must resolve, including:
\\\* MIMO & beamforming antennas – a potentially massive performance lift.
\\\* Market opportunities in urban areas where bandwidth prices can differ by 20x-50x in buildings just a block apart.
\\\* New radios and new markets put new requirements on protocols for mesh networking and service delivery.
Our intense hands-on afternoon has one business focus but could easily foster startup ideas for several adjacent businesses.
