Devin Turner was featured in a Milwaukee Business Journal article for his business mobile app, FocalCast, that lets users present PowerPoints and interactive whiteboards from their tablet or smartphone directly onto a television or other display device.

Devin and his business partner had their idea accepted this spring by Capital Innovators, a St. Louis-based tech accelerator that gives out $50,000 to startup companies in return for an equity stake.

In an interview at myPreso, FocalCast was explained: “We have all experienced painful presentations and connection issues are still a problem for students, teachers and salesforces everywhere. FocalCast was created based on the technology that is now available in Chromecast, Miracast and Apple TV as a solution to make presentations mobile, wireless and interactive. … With FocalCast and wireless adapters you can turn an entire school or office into a cordless interactive workspace for the cost of a single SMART Board.”
