We were founded on a “Big Idea” with a simple premise: to know where someone or something  is at the touch of a button. Every day we ask this question – where are you? It’s in our DNA to ask this question because we are all hardwired to want to protect our people and assets. We ask where is my mother with Alzheimer’s, my teenager with autism, my wife, my child, my sales team, my shipment?
