Update: Firefly Wireless Networks has been acquired by Signify.

FireFly Wireless Networks, LLC is a Visible Light Communications (VLC) and Infrared Light Communications (ILC) company jointly-owned by LightPointe Communications, Inc. based in San Diego, California, which is the world’s number one manufacturer of 60 GHz radios, 80 GHz radios, and Free Space Optics Solutions, Teleconnect GmbH of Dresden, a German-based telecommunications company, and Berg and Berg Enterprises, a multi-billion dollar Silicon Valley venture capital firm. The company has recently come out from operating in “stealth mode” for 2 years to work on various innovations in VLC and has already received patents on some of their work.

Thanks to solid backing from its parent, FireFly has become one of the leading companies involved in VLC through its creation of a wide array of commercially-available LiFi products.
