Teamwork with my husband, who serves as an advisor, and teamwork with our wonderful team at Confirm Biosciences, which I like to call the extended part of our family,” she continued.

Rise in Supertall Construction Projects Drives Growth in the Global Obstruction Lighting Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, California (PRWEB) January 13, 2015
Follow us on LinkedIn -Obstruction lights, also known as aviation lights, are lights that indicate the existence of obstacles in the aircraft flight path. Obstruction lights form an integral part of aviation lighting designed to assist pilots in navigating, especially during nights and bad weather conditions. Growth in the market is expected to remain steady driven by stringent air safety norms, and rise in the construction of tall structures such as skyscrapers, telecom/broadcast towers, and wind turbines, among others. The market also stands to gain from replacement of traditional incandescent fixtures with energy efficient LED obstruction lights.
Of special note is the rapid proliferation of telecommunication infrastructure against a backdrop of expanding mobile subscriber base and deployment of 4G networks. Installation of rooftop cellular towers is therefore increasing as mobile network operators seek to improve connectivity and quality of service. Strong growth in cable TV, satellite TV and DTTV is spurring media investments in broadcast towers, thus creating increased need for obstruction lighting solutions. Wind turbine installations as part of the government focus on sustainable energy are helping expand the need for safety lights. This is largely because wind turbines, which are often installed on hilltops and high-altitude mountainous terrains, present a potential threat to low flying aircraft. Also driving the need for obstruction lighting is the increase in low-flying helicopter operations owing to increased use of helicopters by law enforcement and emergency medical service agencies.
Given the growing emphasis on energy efficiency and cost reduction, manufacturers are focusing on the development of compact, power saving LED lights with superior aerial visibility in all weather conditions. Constantly evolving LED lumen efficiency and chip performance, and rising government incentives for improved energy efficiency standards, are key factors supporting the growth of LED obstruction lighting.
As stated by the new market research report on Obstruction Lighting, the United States represents the single largest market worldwide. Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market with a CAGR of 7.8% over the analysis period.
Major players covered in the report include BTI Light Systems A/S, Carmanah Technologies Corporation, Hughey & Phillips LLC, Dialight plc, Orga Aviation BV, Flash Technology, International Tower Lighting LLC, TWR Lighting Inc., and Ceravision Limited among others.
The research report titled “Obstruction Lighting: A Global Strategic Business Report” announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a comprehensive review of trends, issues, and strategic industry activities of major companies worldwide. The report provides market estimates and projections in US dollars for geographic markets such as the United States, Canada, Japan, Europe (France, Germany, Italy, UK, Spain, Russia and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, India and Rest of Asia-Pacific), Middle East/Africa and Latin America.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) November 10, 2014
Follow us on LinkedIn – Language Translation, a process that involves communicating the meaning of a source text in a specific language, is a fast growing market driven by increasing globalization of business and commerce.

Language translation market comprises a wide range of language services that typically include translation, localization, interpretation, and internationalization as well as supporting technologies.
Demand for language translation is witnessing significant growth encouraged by the rising popularity of Internet for accessing and exchanging data. The transformational role played by Internet in the way business is carried out has led to huge demand for online translation services. Increasing proliferation of Internet in non-English speaking regions such as Latin America, Asia, Europe and Africa is a major factor promoting the need for localized websites. Innovative processes, technologies, applications, and usage of sophisticated products are other factors driving growth in the market. The market is witnessing a shift towards machine language translation from manual translation process, driven in part by emergence of SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) delivery model. Computer-based translation tools, also referred to as translation memory systems, are preferred by smaller companies, professional translators and translation agencies. Technology advancements are enabling embedding of translation technology into a wide range of products from complex enterprise systems to sophisticated consumer gadgets. Advances in communication networks and the rising proliferation of smartphones and tablets have led to the introduction of translation apps to provide instant translation of speech and text. Increasing prominence of cloud computing is also resulting in increasing demand for cloud-based translation tools, which are expected to affect demand for conventional translation technology.
As stated by the new market research report on Language Translation Software and Services, the United States represents the largest regional market worldwide. Increasing population diversity and the need for businesses to sharpen their regional appeal while remaining global in characteristics are major factors attributed to the rise of translation services in the country. Asia-Pacific is forecast to emerge as the fastest growing market with a CAGR of 14.9% over the analysis period, supported by rapid mushrooming of foreign owned businesses in the region, lucrative customer base with growing income levels, and existence of several non-English languages in the region.

Urban Hydroponics’ Principal Executive Officer Frank Terzo stated, “This proposed merger transaction will bring public two of the leading name brands in hydroponics. Urban Cultivator and BC Northern Lights appliances have received accolades from trade publications and high-profile users alike. The increasing awareness around eating locally grown, higher nutrition foods that reduce our carbon footprint is a driving force behind the expanding growth of this market. We look forward to completing this merger transaction by the end of the calendar year.”
Tarren Wolfe, founder and majority stockholder of Urban Cultivator, BC Northern Lights, and W3 Metal, added, “We believe that upon completion of this merger, we will be financed and positioned for accelerated growth as we leverage our brand equity to supply top-quality appliances to residential and commercial customers.

Aquatherm Industries, Inc. Names Reliable Solar of Melbourne, Florida Newest Master Dealer for its Solar Industries Solar Pool Heaters
(PRWEB) October 10, 2014
The United States’ largest manufacturer of solar thermal equipment, Aquatherm Industries, Inc., announced today it has named Reliable Solar Enterprises of Brevard, Inc. the newest Master Dealer of its original “flagship brand” of solar pool heaters, “Solar Industries.” Based in Melbourne, Florida, Reliable Solar has a 30-year track record of quality solar pool heater installations throughout Brevard County.
Aquatherm Industries, Inc. President and CEO Dave Sizelove, personally visited the couple to welcome them into the manufacturer’s exclusive Master Dealer Program. The program was started in 1993 as a way to recognize dealers who hold themselves to a higher standard of quality and customer service. Master Dealers receive a number of benefits from Aquatherm, including upgraded and supplemental product warranties, co-op advertising funds to use with the manufacturer’s various sales and marketing programs, and leads generated by Aquatherm within a Master Dealer’s market.
“Greg and Tricia consistently sell against a number of different brands of solar pool heaters in their highly competitive market,” says Sizelove. “Being named an exclusive Solar Industries Master Dealer gives them a competitive edge with the best product and warranty in the industry, along with the support of our nationwide network of Master Dealers.”
Greg and Tricia McTaggart, owners of Reliable Solar, pride themselves on doing the job right the first time, using only the best materials available. “One thing you’ll find in common with a lot of the products we sell and install is that they are made in the USA,” says Greg, who also functions as the company’s lead installer. “That’s no accident – we believe in supporting American Industry and purposely choose products from manufacturers who share our beliefs.”
According to Sizelove, doing business with customers who share in Aquatherm’s beliefs, like Reliable Solar, is a key contributor to the manufacturer’s success over its 25 years. “Our goal is to find customers who believe what we believe, and work together so we can all succeed,” says Sizelove. “We’re looking for people to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with us in pursuit of the same goal.”
In their thirty years of business, The McTaggarts have amassed a considerable customer base in their market, resulting in most new sales coming by way of referral from existing customers. In fact, the company’s customers love them so much, Greg and Tricia made their website URL http://www.ilovereob.com (I Love Reliable Enterprises of Brevard). On the company’s Yelp page, a customer named Sandy M. shows some of that love with a rave review, saying “I called Reliable for an estimate for a pool heater and was very impressed with the professionalism of office manager Tricia. The price they gave me was really fair compared to the other quotes I got – and Greg couldn’t have been nicer when he came to install. I recommend this company… they do all sorts of services I plan on using soon. Plus I’m all for family run businesses!”
About Aquatherm Industries, Inc.
An ISO 9001:2008 registered company, Aquatherm Industries, Inc. is the largest U.S. manufacturer of low-temperature, unglazed polymer solar collectors – primarily used for residential and commercial swimming pool heating as well as domestic hot water and process pre-heat applications. Within the company’s “pellets to panels” approach, Aquatherm’s extrusion, welding, and injection molding processes have been awarded four U.S. and two International Patents for its technology. In addition, Aquatherm’s collectors were the first NSF-50 listed solar collectors in the world.

Demand for Additional Backhaul Capacity Drives the Millimeter Wave Equipment Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, CA (PRWEB) July 22, 2013
Follow us on LinkedIn – Millimeter waves (Mm-wave) are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum falling in the frequency range of 30GHz – 300GHz. Initially deployed for defense and research based applications, Mm-wave technology today finds use in a range of applications including automotive radars, airport scanners and surveillance systems, weather forecasting applications, radio broadcasting, cell phone transmissions, and telecommunication links. The main feature of Mm-wave technology is its unique resolution. The short wavelength along with significant bandwidth and transmission features of mm-waves enables use of small-sized antennas which is critical in dense urban deployments. In the coming years, Mm-waves are poised to gain momentum largely due to factors such as technological advancements and the exploding growth in media technology coupled with consumer inclination towards high-bandwidth connectivity.
Mobile backhaul is expected to be the major growth driver for millimeter wave equipment. The market is expected to witness a surge in demand with increase in deployment of high capacity mobile backhaul solutions in metros along with high cell density following the deployment of 4G network. As more consumers shift to smartphones and explore applications such as social networking, mobile enterprise, and entertainment, the need for additional network capacity and speed is on the rise. Also, increasing volumes of high-definition content, VOD and other personalized video services, and growth in data volumes being transmitted through communication networks is pushing demand for greater bandwidth. Conventional networks are being strained to address the growing requirements of network enablers and users. With the mobile industry exploring heterogeneous wireless networks, Millimeter waves, due to high frequency characteristics are evolving as an ideal solution for small cell backhaul problems. The evolution of next generation 4G/LTE networks and the growing need for backhaul solutions that offer lowest TCO to carriers, at the same time high scalability to address the exploding data traffic offers a strong business case for millimeter wave (Mm-wave) equipment.
With X-ray security scanners facing a lot of flak from regulatory authorities raising doubts about the scanners’ performance and effect when exposed to human skin, millimeter wave technology is gaining ground in scanning devices. Further, given its unique benefits, research is underway to deploy millimeter wave technology for non-destructive inspection in addition to food inspection and security measures. Also, Mm-wave radars that find extensive use in automotive safety devices in luxury vehicles are gradually penetrating the middle tier vehicle segment.
As stated by the new market research report on Millimeter Wave Equipment, the United States represents the largest market worldwide. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest growing market with a robust CAGR of 67% over the analysis period. China and India are forecast to fuel demand for rich Internet media services, which require improved back haul transmission links, thereby increasing the requirement of millimeter wave technology.
