Creating an opportunity to expand one of his businesses, Chuck D of Public Enemy and his website rapstation.com has entered into a partnership with Engineered Wireless Solution, Inc. The new venture between the two companies titled of North American Initiative LLC, is hoping to better inform the urban community on the rapid changes in the technological world.
The goals of the partnership are to bring “value” wireless technology into urban communities nationwide. Using expanded partnerships with such groups as World Conference of Black Mayors, Native American Initiatives Housing and Schools, the White House’s Faith Based Initiative, Department of Commerce, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, they will be able to make their technology be used in business or homes. The program is set to begin early next year in target cities such as Baltimore, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Atlanta.
Once the program begins it will introduce Wireless Internet Computers, Wireless Broadband Access, and Distance Learning Application. Chuck D also hopes to begin work on a program titled Edutainment that will teach people technology through the use of music.
