Paul Safr
    Paul Safr is a Canadian who developed his first patent, in his spare time, creating the original live-fire tactical training round that could fully function in a self-loading firearm.  Paul has since developed several patents in the same field.  After several years in the U.S., Paul moved back to Canada to develop his skills as an illustrator, animator and video producer.  Since the field of Non Linear Editing was still new and highly technical, Paul developed a foundation of skills related to computer based hardware and operating systems.  Paul joined a multimedia firm in the mid 90’s and successfully produced numerous marketing videos and promotional items related to sales; such as packaging and print materials. During this time Paul also wrote a software package for processing video and creating special effects.
    Paul later began his own IT services company leveraging his knowledge of computers, operating systems and programming.  Paul has skills in computer hardware and software including computer assembly, installation and repairs.  His software skills extend to coding, creating customized software for specialized applications, inventory management systems, bar-code scanners and printers and other manufacturing related software and systems.
    Paul has an interest in green technology and alternate energy.  Paul brings years of experience in IT to the company and will be instrumental in implementing the hardware and software required for GreenTech Fixtures to track orders, inventory, and to efficiently operate the build-on-demand assembly of our induction lighting fixtures.

L. Michael Roberts - CTO
    
L. Michael Roberts is a Canadian and after moving to Toronto from his home overseas, he founded his own sound and lighting company and then became the first in Canada to offer laser display services.  Michael’s successful career in lasers let him to seeking up-and-coming technology opportunities as part of his mandate as director of Research for a Canadian High-tech company.  During his investigations, he became interested in electrodeless magnetic induction lamps.
    He located and imported samples of first-generation lamps and ballast from Chinese suppliers in 2005 and conducted extensive testing.  The results of his work lead to the founding of the first induction lighting importer and distributor in Canada.  Michael worked with the factories in China to make improvements to Induction Lighting technology and provided designs and advice for fixtures that would suit the needs of the North American market.
    He published “The Science Behind Induction Lighting” which has been widely plagiarized by induction lighting distributors around the world.  In 2006, an induction lamp Highbay fixture he designed won the “Innovative Product Award” from the Huron Manufacturers Association.  Michael is also the author of the soon-to-be-published  "The Induction Lighting Handbook" the only technical manual in the field.
    Michael has developed face-to-face relationships with all of the major induction lighting factories in China and been retained to perform technical evaluations on their products.  He continues to visit the factories an average of twice a year and stays in contact with engineers, researchers and academics working in the field of magnetic induction lighting.
    Michael is an inventor with granted and pending patents, a number of them in the Magnetic Induction Lighting field.  He has licensed his technology to GreenTech and a number of Chinese factories who build products based on his Intellectual Property.  He has  worked closely with Induction Lighting distributors in NAFTA and internationally on solving technical issues, developing educational and technical literature, providing training and technical support for the distributors, testing and R&D activities.
   Michael will act as Chief Technology Officer for GreenTech Fixtures.  The photo shows him holding an early prototype of his Compact Induction Lamp.
