Slipstream joins wireless technology partnership
Posted on 15/03/2012
We were delighted when Yorkshire based technology company Tether approached us to develop wireless technologies for consumer applications.
Tether is an exciting technology company, set up to develop wireless technology products for applications primarily in the consumer markets. Tether heard about Slipstream Design’s expertise in wireless technology R&D and approached us for specialist support to develop wireless technologies for a number of exciting concept applications, including the protection of personal possessions such as laptops, keys, phones and other personal devices.

After gaining a degree in Mathematics, Helen spent a year in Australia, combining her travels with various diverse jobs – everything from fruit-packing to working at the Australian Bureau of Statistics!
Before joining Slipstream, Helen was a payroll manager for a heavyweight UK retailer. She now seamlessly blends her role at Slipstream with bringing up three small children (all under five – phew!).
“Slipstream is a forward-thinking company and I’m really enjoying helping the operation to run like clockwork”, says Helen.
