Why Ottawa

Spotwave is proud to be located in what the company believes to be one of the world’s most desirable wireless ecosystems. Four of the globe’s top five wireless companies — Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, Ericsson and Huawei — all have significant R&D facilities in Ottawa. They are part of a 367-company, 27,000-employee strong talent bank that spans the breadth of wireless infrastructure and services.

Ottawa’s home-grown wireless stars include Spotwave along with DragonWave and Bridgewater Systems. Regional powerhouses Research In Motion (RIM), Rogers Communications, and SiGe Semiconductor also have significant campuses in the city. Wesley Clover, the Ottawa-based venture capital firm headed by Ottawa technology billionaire Sir Terence Matthews, currently directs 60 per cent of its funding at new wireless startups.

Ottawa is also home to two nationally funded laboratories — Communications Research Centre and the National Research Centre, and two universities (Carleton University and University of Ottawa) that continually fuel new wireless innovations.
