CableLabs Plants Flag In Silicon Valley

When the doors of the new CableLabs Innovation Office and Lab facility swing open on October 28, 2013 in Silicon Valley, cable’s research and development consortium will embark on a new era of strategic thinking and boot up a venue tasked with sparking new ideas and the debut of a process aimed at bringing those ideas to fruition.

The new facility, initially to support seven CableLabs employees, will focus on managing and developing the research and design organization’s innovation portfolio while also encouraging employees, CableLabs members, and potential development partners to identify and develop new technologies for the cable industry. It will also be used to host events and lay down firm roots in the tech-savvy area. In fact, it has already scheduled an open house on November 21 so vendors, members, and Silicon Valley locals can poke around and schmooze. A main goal of the Silicon Valley facility is to accelerate the process of developing new ideas and how to get them to market for efficiently, while also creating fresh investment opportunities.
