Mayor’s Office of the CTO and Trust for Governors Island Announce Connectivity Challenge Finalists
Three finalists selected for ‘Moonshot’ tech challenge will now test proposals for high-speed Wi-Fi and next generation “5G” cellular connectivity on Governors Island.
January 31, 2018. New York, NY. – Chief Technology Officer Miguel Gamiño, Jr. and Trust for Governors Island President Michael Samuelian announced today the finalists of the NYCx Governors Island Connectivity Challenge, the first citywide ‘Moonshot Challenge’ through the NYCx program that will bring high-speed, low-cost wireless service to Governors Island in 2018.
The three finalists represent a broad range of start-up companies and entrepreneurs aiming to bring internet connectivity to the Island, while informing how to deliver next generation network infrastructure for “5G” cellular connectivity across New York City’s parks and neighborhoods.
The Connectivity Challenge Finalists:
1. Neutral Connect Networks LLC, based in West Palm Beach, FL, owns and operates wireless communications infrastructure in New York City and other U.S. cities.
2. Fiberless Networks™, based in Quincy, MA offers wireless technology with speeds of 1 Gbps and greater. Fiberless Networks will partner with Green Zebra and Cisco Meraki to test and build their solution on Governors Island.
3. Edge Fibernet, based in NYC, provides internet and phone connectivity to low-income communities in Times Square, Brooklyn and Manhattan’s lower east side.
Over the next few months, finalists will work with the Trust and the Mayor’s Office of the Chief Technology Officer to test and build solutions on Governors Island. A final winner will be chosen for the Connectivity Challenge to deploy their technologies on Governors Island during opening season.
“I’m excited to see new tools and technologies breaking ground in New York and helping us move a step closer to achieving the Mayor’s goal of affordable, high-quality, high-speed internet for all New Yorkers,” said Miguel Gamiño, Jr., New York City Chief Technology Officer. “This Moonshot Challenge is helping us engage the right experts to accelerate connectivity, establish fair opportunity for everyone to participate in today’s world, and make tech work for people.”
“Congratulations to all the finalists for putting forward innovative solutions to the “Moonshot Challenge” of creating more opportunity for high-speed, low-cost wireless service on Governors Island,” said Council Member Peter Koo, Chair of the Committee on Technology. “We look forward to making sure Governors Island lives up to its potential as a world class location that connects the five boroughs in more ways than one.”
The Connectivity Challenge, announced in October, 2017 looks to encourage global entrepreneurs to propose and deliver bold solutions to the City’s most pressing challenges and further Mayor Bill de Blasio’s goal to ensure every New York City resident and business will have access to affordable, reliable, high-speed broadband service by 2025. Through solutions proposed by the finalists announced today, the City expects to acquire new insights to advance broadband, Wi-Fi and 5G cellular service.
