Putting the band back together
Edited fromVNC post 11/19/20
The co-founders of corporate spinoff Beam Mobile in Nashville have drawn together former teammates and advisors from their days at Griffin Technology to accelerate Beam's penetration of hospital and other markets with its smartphone protection products.
The company's heightened focus on health markets occurs against the backdrop of the rapidly spreading COVID-19. And management believes these and related forces have heightened provider interest in mobile solutions for support of communications by clinicians and administrators, according to COO Jeff Pack, in an interview for this story.
Paul Griffin Jr. founded Griffin Technology in 1992. It was acquired in 2016 on undisclosed terms. Griffin's original Tennessee headquarters and warehouse were moved to the west coast. Griffin and Pack reached agreement to spinoff Beam Mobile as a B2B business. Pack said Beam Mobile is running profitably on sales of its disinfectant-ready iPhone cases with polycarbonate shells that afford best-of-class drop protection.
While its business model, strategy, and founders' backing enable the company to grow organically, Pack confirmed it had attracted some interest from potential domestic and international partners. However, he said the company has no active plans to recruit capital but welcome approaches by principals who have extraordinary industry and market expertise.
Beam products function with mobile EHR applications including Epic Rover, Cerner CareAware, AllScripts, and Meditech; and with mobile clinical communications packages for iPhone, including Patientsafe, Mobile Heartbeat, Vocera, Telemediq, and Voalte.
Hospital adopters of Beam products include the Mt. Sinai Hospital (New York City), Christ Hospital, UC San Diego, UMC Chicago, Virtua, Healthfirst, UNC Health, and many others.
Pack said Beam offerings are certified as Made for iPhone and iPad ("MFi") and include fully enclosed cases for the iPhone SE, 8, 7, and 6s (and XR/11). The company's website highlights Beam's disinfectant plastics, fully-enclosed cases, screen protectors, swappable batteries, and other features.
In keeping with the team's Griffin DNA, Pack said the company is simultaneously working with Apple and barcode scanning companies on applications for iPhone, which could allow expansion into retail, logistics-supply, and other uses. In addition, Beam is working on a B2B iPad product for hospital use; and the company is in various stages of market entrance in the UK, Australia, and Latin America.
Asked about advisors, the COO named an array of firms and individuals, virtually all of which have ties to the former Griffin Technology. He said the company is essentially "bringing the band back together" for the new venture. The advisors include:
Attorney Curtis Capeling of Bass Berry & Sims, who helped with Griffin's sale; IP attorney Jason Hornkohl; and Rick Betts CPA of Carr Riggs & Ingram. Among contractors who Beam relies on and had former ties to include sales representatives at The Four Verticals (Aliso Viejo, Calif.); and Nashville mechanical engineering firm Fractal LLC. The company also recently signed-on with Atlanta- and Nashville-based Carabiner Communications, a former PR firm used by Pack.
