Hiram Jackson is president of GlobalView Technologies, which is making strides in video conferencing. Jackson owns 60 percent, DTE 40 percent. In recent months, Jackson has landed lots of work with the big automakers, specializing in wireless and video conferencing work.
People can now work together, in real video time, anywhere in the world, at any time.
Out in Auburn Hills, GlobalView is bringing streaming video conferencing to desktop computers at DaimlerChrysler's tech center. In addition to those projects, there's wireless. Instead of being deskbound and hardwired, workers can move all around the office or plant, always connected to the network on their laptops. Wireless networking really improves efficiency and productivity and all the corporations are clamoring for it. With the acquisition of Clover last year, Jackson said, GlobalView has become the nation's largest minority-owned technology enterprise and the largest systems integration company in the state.
