CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — HITEC 2024 — InfiniG, a pioneer in solutions for in-building wireless, today announced the successful deployment of its groundbreaking Mobile Coverage as a Service (MCaaS) solution at the luxurious Gale South Beach Hotel, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton. This revolutionary deployment ensures that guests can seamlessly connect to their preferred mobile network, whether they are savoring authentic Italian cuisine at Dolce Italian Restaurant, sipping handcrafted cocktails at the chic Medium Cool Cocktail Lounge, or unwinding in the hotel’s stylishly appointed guest rooms.

The InfiniG MCaaS solution consists of two key components:

InfiniG On-Ramp: Advanced hardware installed on-site to provide robust mobile coverage throughout the hotel.InfiniG Cloud Service: A cloud-based platform that manages and optimizes the mobile network performance.

InfiniG’s MCaaS solution at the Gale South Beach is currently live with multiple mobile operators, making it the first hotel of its kind to offer this type of multi-carrier mobile coverage service. Hotel guests will now automatically connect to their preferred mobile network, enjoying uninterrupted access to superior voice and data services. This enhancement positions the Gale as a leader among boutique properties, offering the superior connectivity previously limited to larger hotels with DAS, and ultimately driving higher occupancy rates.

“We are excited to partner with the Gale South Beach to deliver an unparalleled mobile experience for their guests,” said Joel Lindholm, CEO of InfiniG. “Our 4-year collaboration with industry leaders Airspan and Druid Software has enabled us to create a truly innovative solution that sets a new standard for in-building mobile coverage in the hospitality sector.”

Key benefits of InfiniG’s MCaaS solution for the Gale South Beach Hotel and its guests include:

Seamless connectivity: Guests automatically access their mobile network without the need for additional authentication or log-ins.Multi-carrier support: The solution supports major US mobile networks and their MVNO partners, ensuring guests can use their preferred provider.Enhanced safety: Reliable in-building coverage ensures guests can make emergency calls anywhere on the property.Improved guest experience: High-quality mobile services significantly increase guest satisfaction and loyalty.

“Here at the Gale South Beach we strive to provide guests with the best possible experience. Having reliable and robust connectivity is crucial to achieving that,” said Seth Wasserman, Vice President of Information Technology at Gale Hospitality Group, which operates the hotel. “InfiniG’s MCaaS solution guarantees us far superior levels of service for our guests, for both work and play, but also safety, reinforcing our position as a leading destination in Miami Beach.”

The InfiniG MCaaS platform revolutionizes in-building mobile coverage for boutique hotels like the Gale, which previously relied on inadequate solutions such as cellular repeaters that often resulted in poor performance and guest frustration. By integrating Airspan’s advanced Radio Access Networks and Druid’s cutting-edge Raemis™ MOCN Gateways, InfiniG’s solution ensures seamless multi-carrier support and 5G-readiness, elevating the guest experience and setting a new standard for exceptional connectivity at smaller properties.

“Airspan is thrilled to be part of the InfiniG groundbreaking MCaaS solution,” said Glenn Laxdal, CEO of Airspan Networks. “Our innovative radio access technology, combined with the power of the CBRS spectrum, is helping to bridge the in-building coverage gap and unlock new opportunities for the hospitality industry.”

“Druid’s Raemis™ MOCN Gateway is a key enabler for scalable, multi-carrier mobile coverage deployments,” added Druid Software CEO Liam Kenny. “We are proud of our multi-year work with the InfiniG team to enable this transformative solution at the Gale South Beach Hotel, showcasing the immense potential of shared mobile networks and addressing the growing demand for mobile connectivity along with economic and environmental concerns.”

InfiniG’s successful deployment at the Gale South Beach marks a significant step forward in addressing the in-building coverage challenge, which impacts an estimated 5.9 million commercial buildings in the US alone.

EcoCharge® and Balancell Partner to Drive Energy Efficiency in Africa with Advanced and Stable Charging Technologies

Published

on

By

CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Two advanced energy solutions companies are announcing a multi-year partnership to support the growing demand for reliable and efficient charging solutions across the African market. The IDEAL Industries, Inc. brand EcoCharge by Enatel®, a global leader in battery charging technologies, is supplying charging technology to Balancell, a cutting-edge battery manufacturer and energy supplier.

Empowering Africa’s Energy Transition

Africa is experiencing a dynamic shift toward sustainable energy and electric mobility. Global banks and investors funded $76.04 billion in solar, hydropower, and wind projects across Africa from 2012 to 2021. The investments supported renewable energy developments like Kenya’s Lake Turkana Wind Power Project, a $1.095 billion wind farm that boosted their total electricity supply by 13%. Electrification is also rising; Africa’s electric vehicle market is expected to nearly double between 2021 and 2027.

However, more work remains. Africa attracts less than 5% of the world’s energy investments, using only 11% of its hydropower potential and 0.01% of its wind potential. Over 40% of Africans still lack access to electricity.

To advance battery charging solutions in Africa, Balancell will leverage charging technologies from EcoCharge to electrify the African material handling fleet. This initiative will help reduce CO2 emissions and enhance charging efficiency.

“We are thrilled to be part of the renewable energy transition in Africa,” said Enatel General Manager Mike Clifford. “By partnering with Balancell, we are matching a leading-edge battery design with an advanced charger. We’re confident this winning combination will help our customers achieve faster charging, less energy waste, and higher performance.”

Partnering for Growth and Sustainability

Under the agreement, EcoCharge will supply Balancell with a range of chargers that meet the challenging needs of the African market, such as unstable electrical grids and harsh environments. These advanced chargers will be integrated into Balancell’s advanced industrial batteries, providing the perfect match for optimal energy management and control.

“Partnering with EcoCharge allows us to offer our customers superior charging solutions that are both innovative and sustainable,” said Paul Osborne, Director and Chief Financial Officer of Balancell. “This collaboration enhances our ability to deliver comprehensive energy solutions that support Africa’s transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources.”

Driving Innovation

EcoCharge chargers are known for their durability, efficiency, and adaptability, making them suitable for deployment in diverse and sometimes challenging environments across Africa. This partnership with Balancell not only strengthens the product offerings available to the African market but also underscores the EcoCharge commitment to continued innovation and investment in sustainable energy solutions.

EDC expands Indo-Pacific presence with a new representation in Japan

Tokyo hub in key “gateway to Asia” nation will better support Canadian exporters

OTTAWA, ON and TOKYO, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Export Development Canada (EDC) announced the opening of its new representation in Tokyo, Japan. This marks EDC’s ninth Indo-Pacific representation, reaffirming the organization’s commitment to helping Canadian companies diversify into higher-growth markets.

As the world’s fourth-largest economy and fifth-largest export destination for Canada in 2023 (accounting for 1.9% of national exports), Japan presents a wealth of opportunities for Canadian exporters of all sizes. Boasting a trusted free market and a strong business and a regulatory environment supported by democratic institutions, the country serves as a strategic launchpad offering exporters easier entry into the region and subsequently into other Indo-Pacific markets. EDC’s Tokyo representation will serve as a vital hub, offering on-the-ground support, market insights and tailored financial services to Canadian companies.

Japan is a key trading partner for Canada, and our countries enjoy deep economic and trade relations spanning 95 years,” said Mairead Lavery, President and CEO, EDC. “With Japan’s reliance on imports, the opportunities for Canadian exporters— particularly in sectors like cleantech, agriculture, and bioscience—are too big to ignore. This representation will offer on-the-ground support necessary for Canadian businesses to capitalize on emerging opportunities and succeed in the Japanese market.” 

In 2023, Japanese foreign direct investment (FDI) stock into Canada reached $49.3 billion, solidifying its role as the leading source of FDI from the Indo-Pacific and third largest worldwide, according to Global Affairs Canada. Additionally, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), in force since 2018, continues to provide Canadian investors with access to Japanese markets by having eliminated or reduced tariffs on most key Canadian exports to the country.

The Honourable Mary Ng, Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development, welcomed the announcement: “Canada’s longstanding economic and trading partnership with Japan reflects the powerful collaboration between our two countries that benefits Canadian and Japanese people alike. EDC’s new Tokyo representation is a testament to the enduring economic relationship between Canada and Japan and will play a crucial role in supporting Canadian businesses in the Indo-Pacific. I look forward to seeing our trade and investment relationship advance further through these new collaborations.”

George Monize, EDC’s Managing Director and Head of the Indo-Pacific emphasized the strategic importance of Japan for Canadian companies: “Japan has many of the critical elements for Canadian exporters’ expansion in this region. But to really thrive here—strong relationships are key. And that is why we are here, getting to know the market inside and out to forge the connections Canadian companies need to grow and succeed. The Tokyo representation will work closely with our established Singapore hub—harnessing our learnings, experience and networks to ensure we have the right recipe of support in place for Canadian businesses.”

With efforts led by EDC’s Chief Representative, Jean-Bernard Ruggieri, the Tokyo office will collaborate closely with local agencies, government and partners in Japan to navigate market complexities and facilitate business opportunities for Canadian companies. Tokyo complements EDC’s existing representations in Delhi, Mumbai, Shanghai, Beijing, Sydney, Jakarta, Seoul, and Singapore.
