In November 2024, Industrious began prototyping a revolutionary mobile Wi-Fi cart that delivers fast connectivity without requiring a power outlet. Designed to be portable, quick to deploy, and equipped with a long-lasting battery, the device is poised to transform event connectivity.
Industrious, the visionary behind Industrious Technology Services, which started in 2019, earned a degree in Information Systems and Technology at the University of the Virgin Islands in 2016. Industrious, whose experience ranges from support technician at Celebrity Financial Inc. to fiber optic technician at the Virgin Islands Next Generation Network, has long dreamed of entrepreneurship in the tech industry. “I have always been into tech and gadgets. I consider myself mechanically inclined. I spent a lot of time in my childhood taking things apart, figuring out how they worked, and reassembling them,” Industrious said.
“One of the driving forces behind my entrepreneurship was a desire to make an income that would support a comfortable life. I decided to combine all the skills I had acquired through my education and the various positions I had worked and I crafted a business that would fill a gap in the existing market locally. I knew people really wanted one-on-one tech support including camera and other tech installations, and from there I continued to add services as my business’s capacity grew,” Industrious said.
