LEDCOM International awarded funding from Regional ‘Research & Innovation’ Program

LEDCOM International S.r.l. is proud to announce the award of a € 600,000 7-year loan from the Regione Lombardia ‘Research & Innovation’ Program for the development of its CellLED® disruptive technology.

CellLED® is a LED driver for street lighting which, in addition to providing unparalleled energy saving for the municipality, aims at turning each lamppost into a micro cell for mobile traffic off-loading. Through CellLED®, the street lighting infrastructure becomes a pervasive, ultra-fast broadband mobile network available to all carriers, MNOs and MVNOs. At the same time, the CellLED® based network allows for the deployment of real smart city applications which the current narrow-band solutions will never be able to address.

“We are very pleased to be selected and trusted by our Regional Authority as one of the most promising and innovative companies in the eco-industrial environment” stated Mauro Tosi, founder of LEDCOM International and CellLED® visionary. “This collaboration is going to place Milan and its surrounding region at the forefront of the next mobile 5G revolution, while providing great benefits to the energy saving programs outlined by all the municipalities involved”.
