Greg’s long-time mentor is Catherine Szpindor, his former colleague at Nextel who currently serves as the Chief Administrative Officer at the U.S. House of Representatives. Szpindor showed Greg that building relationships with integrity and leading by example is the key to reaching your full potential and the organization you lead. “When you invest the time to grow and strengthen relationships with your employees, partners, and industry peers, the investment pays off ten-fold in building influence and gaining valuable insights in the industry.”
"Kajeet is at the cutting-edge of the Internet of Things (IoT), and it continues to push the boundaries of what is possible when we leverage innovative devices and the ecosystems that connect them."
From Greg’s point of view, the most challenging part of being a leader is keeping a laser focus on the things that matter most. With so many possible initiatives and innovations on the horizon, choosing the right projects and partners to invest time and energy into is a daily challenge. Above all, Greg explains, the goal is being customer obsessed and driving the most value to our customers, and that is a guiding principle at Kajeet.
Kajeet is at the cutting-edge of the Internet of Things (IoT), and it continues to push the boundaries of what is possible when we leverage innovative devices and the ecosystems that connect them. The Kajeet vision and mission is to create connections for good, and the company is committed to continuing to drive innovation across every market segment using machine learning, artificial intelligence, and insight-driven actions.
While the number of connected IoT devices is proliferating across the board, what stops companies from succeeding in their IoT initiatives is the challenge of putting all the disparate components of an effective IoT solution together. From device acquisition and data management to security, policy controls, and intelligent analytics, there is a great deal of difficulty that comes with establishing each unique use case and marrying them with one another in a way that works for your business.
That’s where Kajeet plays a critical role. As an experienced managed IoT connectivity provider, Kajeet provides customers with comprehensive, end-to-end solutions and serves as industry experts for them. This allows Kajeet to provide out-of-the-box solutions to many common use cases and a consultative approach to build solutions for our customer’s unique needs.
One of the exciting sectors that Kajeet is serving is the electronic vehicle (EV) charging market. IoT-connected EV charging stations allow business owners to take advantage of telematics and device insights and enable them to recognize immediate revenue impacts through real-time analytics and drive secure automated actions to resolve issues on each charging station.
Kajeet is also seeing rapid growth in telehealth and remote patient monitoring. Through their partnerships with clients like Sano Health, they deliver multi-carrier connectivity and telehealth-enabled mobile devices to healthcare providers – empowering them to offer continuity of care for their disadvantaged, under-connected, and at-risk patients from the safety of their own homes.
In the K-12 education realm, the Kajeet connected SmartBus solution enables digital equity while also ensuring the safety of student riders. Utilizing the latest advancements in 5G connectivity, video, and geolocation services, the level of insights they can now capture about school bus activity while providing high-speed Wi-Fi connections to student riders will continue to evolve and transform the world of K-12 education.
The unique, proprietary network on which all Kajeet solutions run allows the Kajeet team to inspect all traffic on any device and take appropriate actions. This includes everything from policy management, content filtering, a multi-layered secure device experience, and device controls, all while using real-time informatics to optimize the customer value.
In 2022, Kajeet looks forward to expanding its connected healthcare offerings and further developing its smart packaged IoT solution offerings across existing market verticals such as education, transportation, field services, private LTE networks, and first responders. IE
