"Green Plug has positioned itself as a technology provider whose proposed standard for power supplies makes it possible to deliver device-specific power requirements," said Vishal Sapru, Industry Manager for the Power Systems Group at Frost & Sullivan. "The Green Plug specification provides universal and safe connections to any device, thus eliminating the need for disposable, multiple device specific power adaptors. With this embedded technology, device-makers will be able to turn to a universal power supply for multiple devices and consumers will eliminate the need to carry multiple power sources for different applications such as camera, laptop, and phone, among others. The Green Plug standard is also environment friendly."

The interview serves as an opportunity to highlight best practices or accomplishments of an individual or company.

"Frost & Sullivan has a sterling reputation for strategic business vision and thought leadership, so this new Movers & Shakers interview carries significant weight and credibility among the industry sectors it serves," said Frank Paniagua, Jr., founder and CEO, Green Plug. "With the recent meeting of the Alliance for Universal Power Supplies (www.allianceforuniversalpower.org), momentum is building behind an emerging standard for universal power.
