Through
Screens
of the
Future
New, innovative technology is being applied
to screens, providing a
vast upgrade to standard
visual presentations. With
high resolution and vivid
colors, LG's new OLED
(organic light-emitting
diode) screen can showcase presentation ideas
in a realistic, visual way
never before seen in screen
technology.
Far from the blurry projectors and low-resolution
screens of old, this technology is helping companies
make an immediate and dramatic visual impression. The
flexible, transparent, and ultra-thin screen is anticipated
to be the display of the future—capturing the market
and transforming the ways we interact.
Dr. Sang-Beom Han, CEO of LG Display, envisions
OLED screens being integrated into desks, walls, and
windows of offices—not only offering an organic
viewing experience but also changing how we convey
messages and ultimately propel business success.

Improve Ranking
and Visibility
with a MobileFriendly Website
Many are calling Google’s algorithm update last year
“Mobilegeddon.” That’s because this change in practice
downgrades non-mobile-friendly websites—significantly
shuffling mobile search results in the process.
In the final three months of 2014 alone, there were
nearly 18.5 billion searches on mobile devices. But many
companies have been slow to keep up with this change in
customer behavior, either due to the cost associated with
optimizing website design or the personnel and network
infrastructure needed to support the change in-house.
In order to stay relevant, companies need to prioritize
the customer's web-surfing experience. Update company
websites and member portals to be responsive across
all devices. When mobile users search for the nearest
grocery store or bank, they want results they can easily
navigate and read. Optimizing your mobile site can help
decrease the likelihood of lost web traffic, while helping
you stay current with technology trends.
Outsmarting
Power Surges
Since 2014, the Hudson Valley has
been protected from damaging
power surges thanks to a
Superconducting Fault Current
Limiter (SCFCL) from New York
State’s Smart Grid program. Located
at the Knapps Corners substation, the
SCFCL smart grid—the only one of its
kind in New York—has put a stop to
22 cases of power surges that could
have damaged transformers and
caused expensive repairs. Members
of the Hudson Valley community are
not the only ones who’ve taken notice
of the technology’s success. With
high praise from experts, New York’s
smart grid is also garnering global
interest—especially as electrical
disruptions plague cities around the
world. As just one example, Glow
Energy, an electric power company
in Thailand, recently bought the
technology to help protect their
own equipment.
