Partnership Momentum

  • Energous and WiGL — On August 8, the Company announced the next phase of its partnership with WiGL, a developer of touchless wireless charging for IoT devices for wireless power networks, to develop and commercialize IoT products that will be wirelessly powered over distance. The Air Force Research Lab at the U.S. Department of Defense funded the first phase of the project early last year to develop and design tWPT products for military and commercial use. In the project's second phase, Energous’ PowerBridges will continue to provide radio frequency-based (RF) wireless power over distance for WiGL’s tWPT networks.
  • Energous and Veea — On September 20, the Company announced it had joined with Veea Inc., a leader in integrated smart edge connectivity, computing and security technologies, to combine wireless power and edge computing for real-time asset tracking in rapidly growing IoT sectors. The combined technologies were showcased in a proof of concept at the AT&T Mexico Innovation Lab in Mexico City that was designed to demonstrate the real-world relevance and transformative potential of the solutions offered by Energous and Veea in expanding the IoT landscape.
  • Energous and InPlay — On September 26, the Company announced a partnership with InPlay Inc., a fabless semiconductor company, to demonstrate a battery-free temperature and humidity IoT sensor solution. This innovation harnesses the strengths of Energous' PowerBridge technology and InPlay's cutting-edge Bluetooth low-energy beacon system.

“In the third quarter of 2023, we continued to see strong growth in the number of customers utilizing Energous technology in proof of concept deployments, where it is not only proving to be an effective wireless power solution but also demonstrates its potential to optimize IoT environments,” said Cesar Johnston, CEO of Energous. “Aiding this growth is the expansion of our partnership platform, as we continue to seek to bring on additional technology, distribution and IoT System Integrator partners that can help validate our core technology, amplify the benefits of our solutions in key markets, and increase our commercial potential.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
