Paradigm Tech was formed to set a new example in aviation entertainment technology. Co-founders Matt Franzak, a former aircraft fleet owner and operator, and Robert Valentine, an electronics engineer with experience in aviation, teamed up to solve a problem that was pressing Franzak: rising customer demand for entertainment delivered via WiFi in a marketplace that even today can only install the infrastructure of connectivity in an airplane at cost-prohibitive prices – sometimes as much as the cost of the planes themselves.
