Michael Compton's Company Details
The Things Network is a global community of more than 150000 active members from over 100 countries around the world. We bring together startups, developers, businesses along with the universities and governments in building a public Internet of Things data network.Together with the community, we are building a decentralised data network which allows things to connect to the internet without using 4G or WiFi. It is based on the technology called LoRaWAN® which is perfect for the Internet of Things as it is low energy, long range and low bandwidth. Because the costs are very low, we do not have to rely on large telecom corporations to build such a network. Instead, we crowdsource the network and make it publicly available. We covered the entire city of Amsterdam within 6 weeks and inspired hundreds of cities around the world to do the same.
