Project Loon balloons float in the stratosphere, twice as high as airplanes and the weather. They are carried around the Earth by winds and they can be controlled by rising or descending to an altitude with winds moving in the desired direction. People connect to the balloon network using a special Internet antenna attached to their building. The signal bounces from balloon to balloon, then to the global Internet back on Earth. This session will introduce the project, discuss the balloon design and network architecture, then finish by sharing some of our experiences from our June 2013 Pilot Test in New Zealand.

We believe that entrepreneurial thinking and developing creative technology for new products and services are skills that can be taught, learned, and shared through exchanges. Such a mindset is important, not only for those who want to start new ventures, but also for those who want to be entrepreneurial within large, established companies, or who want to start non-profits or new social ventures. Silicon Valley, as the global center of entrepreneurs and technology, is the best place to host this year’s HYSTA annual conference, where a forum for professional discussions will be offered for exchanges of knowledge and insights related to entrepreneurship, technology, and business success. This year, over 1,000 people are expected to be in attendance. You will have the opportunity to meet leaders from various fields, network with talented people, and build up valuable relationships. www.hysta.org | ac2013.team@hysta.us BACK TO TOP     SUBMIT AN EVENT : Please visit the submission link to submit an event for the IAV newsletter.
