Homeland Security Portal Executive of the Week Profile

Mr. Larry Cole, President & CEO, Madesco Technologies

“How often I hear it said that adversity builds character, while that may be true I prefer to think that one shows their true character while under adversity.” Larry C.

Madesco Technologies is private company located in Victoria, BC Canada. We were founded to take advantage of a unique gap in the communications market for Public Safety First Responders and Military. There exists a market opportunity for a unifying device that ties together various forms of legacy and specialized communications gear and also becomes the platform for enhanced communications. In the entire spectrum of person to person radio communications gear, multiple layers of communication technologies and diverse vendors has resulted in isolation and incompatibility at the individual level, hampering effective immediate team level communication. This presents a threat to personal safety during an emergency or terrorist attack.

To help counter this potentially devastating issue for public safety officials, Madesco is developing TeamComms™. A wireless, hands-free, full duplex mobile communications system to enable users to hear and be heard at the individual, team and command levels simultaneously!

Hi, my name is Larry Cole, founder of Madesco Technologies. I’m extremely honored to be associated with the dedicated people involved with this company. Everyone from the staff and board at Madesco, to our end user clients, is dedicated to the focused goal of developing the very best in team communication solutions. Characteristics like clarity of voice communications, ruggedness, adaptability and affordability were all learned by listening to the people who will be using our equipment. We treat these characteristics as a litmus test that must be passed as the very lives we ask to protect us as a society depend on it.
