As an IoT Local Network Service Provider Thinnect is delivering on the promise of IoT. Leveraging energy savings from intelligent lighting, we are cost-effectively making commercial buildings and cities ‘IoT ready’, and working with application partners to offer exciting new services in the future.

Thinnect is a technology spin-out from Defendec, which is a company providing intelligent border patrol solutions, co-funded by the CEO of Thinnect, Jurgo Preden. Jurgo was the CTO of Defendec for 6 years, directing the wireless border patrol product development, and supporting its commercialization resulting in its deployment in 15 countries across the world.

Thinnect, Inc. was formed to exploit the many benefits of Thinnect’s patented, wireless mesh networking technology for the gain of IoT segments such as commercial intelligent lighting and intelligent street lighting. This technology has also been uniquely developed to optimally support dynamic edge-of-networks computing (we call this Mist computing) and also optimally supports network reuse by many applications, making it easy for applications such as building security, smoke detection, product/staff tracking, etc to operate on a single (lighting) network.
