Hi-G-Tek, based in Rockville, Md., is the developer of a new
active-RFID platform for physical-asset monitoring and control.
The company is commercializing patented technology from Pacific
Northwest National Laboratory that enables “sensing” of assets,
whether stationary or in transit, indoors or outdoors.
Hi-G-Tek’s electronic tags, locks and seals detect the status or condition of an asset, allowing for unprecedented levels
of real-time security. When combined with asset
location or any common long-range communication system,
such as cellular, radio or satellite, Hi-G-Tek’s products
instantly deliver mission-critical data to the customer,
anywhere in the world. Battelle Ventures participated
in a $10-million round. Ralph Taylor-Smith sits on the Board (See
deal announcement).
