In this episode of The Future of BizTech, host JC Granger sits down with Matthew Veley, CEO of CellTeks, a company redefining wireless connectivity in places where signal is notoriously unreliable. From oil fields and high-rises to rural homes and military bases, CellTeks specializes in solving the connectivity problems that major carriers ignore—delivering custom signal-boosting solutions across the U.S.

Matthew shares his unconventional path from the service industry to leading one of the few companies certified to engineer and install advanced RF systems, including Starlink integrations and public safety communication networks. He explains why 5G isn’t what most people think it is, how CellTeks pivoted during COVID to survive the collapse of commercial demand, and why the next phase of wireless will require human grit as much as cutting-edge tech.

The conversation also explores the challenges of scaling a niche tech business, educating an unaware market, and navigating the future of connectivity—from augmented reality to smart cities. If you're into field tech, infrastructure innovation, or the real-world edge of 5G and Starlink, this episode is a must-listen.
