\xa0
Founder and CEO of Tive, Krenar Komoni, has what can only be described as an impressive career, with more than 10 years spent in the wireless industry gaining expertise in chip design and business development. He worked with BitWave Semiconductor, where he developed the world\u2019s first 2G+3G+LTE radio in a single chip, Eta Devices \u2013 an MIT-based start-up developing the world\u2019s most efficient cellular base stations \u2013 and consulted for Fortune 500 companies launching new wireless products.
But it was a simple conversation with his father in law, who was complaining of the challenges of supply chain, that sparked Krenar\u2019s entrepreneurial spirit, helped him identify a vital niche, and go on to establish Tive. Designed to help companies take the surprises out of their supply chains through true end-to-end visibility, their innovative solutions are taking the market by storm.
