STEFAN STANISLAWSKI
TITLE : NON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR COMPANY : NETMORE IOT SOLUTIONS LTD INDUSTRY : IOT / TELECOM LOCATION : LONDON , UK
Stefan has had a long career in telecom finance and strategy across over 70 countries .
For some years I have followed the growth of Netmore in Sweden and its impressive range of activities in wireless and property focused communications . I first became aware of the company in 2006 when I became involved with the forerunner team building what was then a highly innovative new type of long-range mobile phone and data network which achieved national coverage in the difficult terrains of Sweden and Norway .
In 2019 , I reconnected with Netmore in Sweden which now also had IoT & property
( building focussed ) networking as well as private mobile networks . The combination of these wireless technologies - particularly with LoRaWAN long battery life IoT - opens up many exciting possibilities . Inspired , we agreed to bring the innovative Nordic experience to the UK and adapt the business model as needed to UK customer needs .
Shortly after setting up Netmore in the UK , I came across Ceren Clulow of Notts CC and the 5G Connected Forest project . Together we decided to invest in and build a groundbreaking private 5G network using radio spectrum newly liberalised by the UK telecom regulator , Ofcom . This was - and still is - all very new ; new technology , new radio frequencies , the novel idea of private 5G which in turn needs new devices . Covid of course caused many , many problems but in the end , we delivered three different 5G networks in four locations thanks to much hard work by the team ( and a little bit of luck !).
