As the final days of TEC approach so does the final days of Summer. In addition to interning at Spectrum Bridge and learning valuable knowledge about start ups and entreprenuership with TEC, I have been enjoying the last days of summer in the hot Florida sunny weather. This weekend’s agenda consisted a day at the [...]

Last week Puneet Agarwal discussed the value of the quantity of iterations over quality. iterations are important but quality is just as important or more for internet services.

Last month, Spectrum Bridge in partnership with Google, created the first smart grid deployment over white space. This was a big step in our fast growing start up. The United State’s recent transition from analog TV to digital TV opened up very valuable spectrum for use by unlicensed devices. The most promising use of this [...]
