Fon working with Qualcomm to expand Wi-Fi hotspots

2014-01-21 14:25:31| InfoWorld: Top News

With new Qualcomm-based products, more funds and a U.S. expansion, free Wi-Fi aggregator Fon expects to reach 35 million hotspots by 2016. Since its inception in 2006, Fon has been working to build a crowd-sourced network of hotspots, where users share their broadband connection via Wi-Fi and in return get free access to other hotspots around the world. The company also has programs for small businesses and enterprises that are invitation-only, for now. The recipe has been successful: Fon's network now stands at over 12 million hotspots.
