Chief Executive Officer at FocalPoint

I’m excited to share FocalPoint’s vision for 2054, which our lead investor Molten Ventures has helped bring to life in this powerful video. As our devices become more powerful, the demand for higher levels of accuracy, reliability, and security in location-based services continues to grow. The economic benefits of GPS to the UK are significant with contributions of £13.6 billion per year - a figure that has more than doubled since 2017.  In the United States, it is estimated that this economic benefit is $1.4 trillion over the same timeframe. This is largely driven by the demand for greater convenience, accuracy and safety of our smartphones, smart cars and smart wearables. However, as our cities become more built up, our GPS receivers will be limited by 21st century technology. A simple upgrade to the way GPS receivers interpret satellite signals will mean our businesses, services and consumers will place extra trust in their location based services and safety-of-life applications. This video from Molten, paints a picture of a future with FocalPoint technology - a world where location based devices are more accurate, reliable and secure. A huge thank you to the team at FocalPoint for making this vision a reality. #GNSS  #GPS #Innovation #WearableTech #PositioningTech #Futureoflocation

GPS is one of the marvels of the modern world and plays a key role in our daily lives. As the demand for smarter, efficient services increases, so does the demand for greater GPS accuracy. Over the next 30 years, we’re advancing location technology to power autonomous vehicles, enhance smartphone navigation, and improve wearable device performance. Imagine a world in which self-driving cars navigate busy cities safely, ride-share drivers locate you with ease, and people feel safe, knowing they have adequate protection on our streets. We are dedicated to improving the lives of everyone who relies on positioning technology, and our vision for 2054 reflects our commitment. Watch our CEO Scott Pomerantz articulate our vision for the next 30 years and how our GPS software is transforming the way we navigate the world. Thank you to Molten Ventures for bringing our vision to life! #GNSS #PNT #Innovation #SmartCities
