SNS FiRe Conference Names mPower Solar Generator a 2016 FiReStarter Company

SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - April 19, 2016) -

Strategic News Service (SNS) has selected mPower Solar Generator as a 2016 FiReStarter company to be featured at the 14th annual Future in Review (FiRe) conference. FiRe 2016 will take place September 27-30, 2016, at the Stein Eriksen Lodge Deer Valley in Park City, Utah.

Described by The Economist as "the best technology conference in the world," FiRe features global thought leaders in technology and the global economy, including Elon Musk, Craig Venter, Michael Dell, Vint Cerf, Leroy Hood, Patti Grace Smith, Mark Hurd, Paul Jacobs, and many others. FiReStarters are selected based on the strength of their potential to bring positive change to the world, and are showcased at the FiRe conference, in panels throughout the event, and with ongoing relationships introduced and supported by SNS.

The mPower Solar Generator is all-in-one, with two solar panels, plus battery, plus inverter, to allow users to have AC and DC power anytime, anywhere. Up until now, gas generators have provided off-grid electricity, but users complain of the noise, weight, difficulty in refilling the generator and that they have a high carbon footprint. mPower Solar Generators solve these problems by utilizing sun light, solar panels and batteries to provide electricity day and night. mPower Solar Generators are the first all-in-one solution that are easy to set up, carry and use.

"We are very excited to be named a FiReStarter and join the excellent group of startups that share this title," said Will Perego, CEO of mPower Solar Generator. "We look forward to the business connections we will make at the Future In Review (FiRe) conference, as they are invaluable for any nascent technology company."

"While the mPower generator is a perfect fit for emerging nations, we also believe that this is the long term vision for a larger part of society. We welcome this contribution to a decentralized power grid, and we are thrilled to have mPower Solar Generator participate as a 2016 FiReStarter company," said Mark Anderson, FiRe Chair and CEO of the Strategic News Service.

Future in Review is a gathering of world-class thought leaders, convened each year with the goal of providing the most accurate look forward in technology. FiRe is a world leader in exploring how technology drives the world economy and in using technology to solve major social challenges. These goals have been consistently achieved through FiRe's collaboration across technology-driven industries and through active support from the global FiRe community.
