mmWave Technologies Information

In March of 2005, mmWave Technologies was sold to Wireless Age Communications Inc. (WAC), an American public company, that had three operating divisions at the time:The Wireless Age - cellular / mobile dealer in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, CanadaThe Wireless Source - wholesale dealer of 2-way public safety radios and other solutionsWireless Works - Niagara-based operator of wireless networksWAC was severely under-capitalized and soon after the takeover the parent company became a drain on mmWave - as it already was on the mobile dealership. As mmWave was the only one of the four operating companies with bank financing, it became the bank, along with the cellular stores, for WAC. The public company operating infrastructure inside WAC was much larger than what was needed for the size of the operation and in the end could not be sustained. mmWave became the sacrificial lamb, and was put into bankruptcy in early 2007. Brad Poulos had been appointed CEO shortly after the purchase of mmwave by WAC. When mmWave was closed, he left the company and John Simmonds was apppointed CEO of both mmWave and WAC. Brad Poulos is now a consultant and teacher. His brother Glenn operates a similar business along with some other mmwave almuni.
