In the beginning, nearly 30 years ago, Portugal only had a few terrestrial TV channels and most TVs were black & white. The young company started importing second-hand colour TVs from Holland and soon had long lines of people in front of the shop. Around the same time the first Astra 1A satellite was launched and they quickly found themselves installing Satellite dishes at the homes of mainly foreigners all over the Algarve. The following 20 years were dominated by Satellite TV until all of a sudden the South of Europe lost very important channels, like BBC, ITV etc, following a change of the Satellite Footprint in February 2014. Having anticipated this change, the company switched to supplying all major TV channels via Internet, the so called iPTV.
The Internet of Things is becoming a reality now, and so is the need for a Company that understands how to connect your Home, to make it safer, smarter and more efficient. Smart sensors will tell you if you left any door or window open, Smart-locks can control who enters the house, no matter where you are and smart meters will help you control your energy usage as well as detect problems with water pressure or leakage. Soon your house will know when you arrive, open the door for you and switch on the lights. A quick look at your mobile phone or tablet will allow you to see and set the temperature for different rooms while your favourite music starts playing through the speakers.
