  • PureLiFi develops LiFi technology, a Wi-Fi alternative using modulated LED light for wireless data communication

  • The funding will be used to commercialize the technology

  • LiFi offers potential advantages like greater security due to its line-of-sight requirement and the ability to use existing lighting infrastructure for access points.
