Las Vegas, NV — Jetwave Wireless announced today that Gotham Sound & Communications, based in New York City, has joined the Jetwave Wireless family.

The move brings together two industry veterans who provide best-in-class expertise for broadcast, film, and production customers. The combination improves how the companies serve customers, providing more options and depth of experience in eCommerce, RF systems, broadcast and film production, A/V and conference room technology, equipment, rentals, live events, and on-site services.

“For more than 20 years, Gotham has been a cornerstone of the production sound community,” said Jim Dugan, founder and CEO of Jetwave. “We have a great deal of respect for Gotham’s iconic brand, relationships, and the team of experts behind it. This is about supporting that foundation and helping it grow.”

“Jetwave brings a level of engineering depth and systems thinking that strongly complements what we do,” said Peter Schneider and Jim Guzzi, co-founders of Gotham.  “As wireless environments become more complex, having that level of expertise alongside our team puts us in a much stronger position to support our customers.” 

Gotham will continue to serve customers under the Gotham brand, supporting the location sound and film markets for more than two decades. “We’re excited about what we can build together,” added Dugan.
