Orthogon is the company to watch when it comes to meeting the challenge of incredibly demanding deployments no other broadband wireless vendor can satisfy. The company is delivering a powerful way for customers to extend wireless access across urban and remote rural areas. And the market is responding with enthusiasm.

But meeting the market demand has not been a small undertaking. Since the day that Orthogon began proving the capabilities of its OS-Gemini wireless system in challenging, large deployments, the demand for its product has skyrocketed. In response, the company needed to adjust its manufacturing strategy to meet the growing need. They also wanted to be certain that additional capital, if needed, was available to manufacture a high volume of products ahead of producing revenue on them.

“We knew we headed in the right direction, we just needed more flexibility in our financial planning,” said Phil Bolt, CEO, Orthogon Systems. “We felt confident that if we could optimize our manufacturing strategy, we would improve our ability to meet customer demand for product and produce the kind of revenue results that would take us to the next level. We wanted to find a cost effective way to gain the financial flexibility we needed.”
The company then approached Lighthouse Capital Partners. Working with LCP, Orthogon was able to secure the venture debt financing that would ensure it had the capital necessary to meet high volume demand and, consequently, grow the business exponentially.

“Lighthouse Capital Partners has become a strategic financial resource to us in a very important stage of Orthogon Systems’ growth,” said Bolt. “Lighthouse understood our market and situation from the start and provided us with the venture debt financing that would ensure our growth no matter when our venture round closed. They put the deal together quickly with minimal complexity and are a pleasure to do business with.”
