Buffalo Grid raised over £400k on Crowdcube last year. Now they have entered a new partnership with Microsoft's Energy Initiative.
Kevin Connolly, CEO of Energy Access, explained why they had joined up Buffalo Grid -
''BuffaloGrid fits perfectly as a partner – it provides affordable access to clean energy for mobile phone charging to those who lack it, and it’s doing so through the innovative use of technology. With a solution that leverages the Internet of Things (IoT), data reporting, analytics and advanced services like machine learning, we believe that BuffaloGrid’s innovative use of Microsoft Azure services will be a truly exciting way to demonstrate that technology can be used to accelerate access to energy and connectivity, while building a scalable and sustainable business model."

ReplyDeleteBecause it's joint with Microsoft's PR team - Which has good reach and makes it likely that the media will write about this relatively small business. It's perfectly reasonable.
