Ontario, California-based LED sign manufacturer Vantage LED USA celebrates 15 years of delivering innovative LED displays, the company has announced.
When the company launched in 2003, it introduced an LED display geared to the OEM market that also included their first software solution: LightSpeed Media Software.
The company continued along under the leadership of founder Chris Ma until 2012, when it decided to jump into the traditional dealer market under the Vantage name, expanding to reach more dealers and disrupt the market by giving more choice and power to consumers, it says. Shortly after that, the company announced the arrival of SM Infinity, a cloud-based system. The company says that was an idea had been floated around the industry for a while but had been limited to custom installations and the billboard market.
2016 was another landmark year for the company, as that was the year Ma announced that he was converting the company to an ESOP, or Employee Stock Ownership Plan. It remains employee-owned today.
