Discover IWT
Innovating for more than 28 years
Innovative Wireless Technologies (IWT) was founded in 1997 by former employees of GE/Ericsson and Motorola to fill a need in the public sector for state-of-the-art wireless communication solutions.
Headquartered in Forest, Virginia for 15 years, IWT moved to Lynchburg, Virginia in August 2012 to accommodate its growing business and need for additional space. The current headquarters provides 40,000 sq. ft. of space and is in the heart of downtown Lynchburg. Today, IWT has additional facilities in Beckley, WV, Morgantown, WV, Indiana, and Colorado to better serve our growing customer base.
IWT headquarters has the interesting history of being the former home of the Lynchburg Circuit Court and regional FBI. The space has since been modernized and transformed into business offices, laboratories, spaces for collaboration, and a full production and repair center for IWT equipment.
When we say, “Made in the USA”, we mean right here in Lynchburg, Virginia.
