TELO was selected as the winning team for the Connectivity Award sponsored by Avnet at the seventh annual ASU Innovation Open (ASUio), held earlier this month.
Established in 2017 by Arizona State University’s Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering and Avnet, the ASUio is designed to challenge and advance university student innovators from across the nation who are aiming to develop hard technology ventures.
TELO Design, a team from the University of Minnesota, provides innovative solutions for those with mobility limitations by developing an ecosystem of IoT enabled assistive devices. This includes integrating technology into their custom-designed rollator which helps users live a more active, independent and confident lifestyle.
The ASUio provides critical venture mentorship and funding for student competitors who are launching a hardware enterprise within a wide variety of cutting-edge marketplaces including but not limited to hardware solutions, IoT and social enterprises with a focus on conscious capitalism.
The winners were announced during an event on Feb. 10. Additional winners and sponsors of the program can be found at: https://asu.io/participants/
