David Sykes, CEO of ProVision Communications commented “We are delighted to be working alongside such a well established and successful company as Global Invacom. Its reputation within the industry is second to none, and should help ensure a rapid take up of our new product line in the market next year”.

ProVision will formally announce its wireless HDTV products and run private demonstrations at CES 2009. The technology will also be on show as part of the UKTI CES unveiled exhibit, ProVision is one of just six companies chose by UKTI to represent British innovation.
