ARADATUM
ARADATUM
Energy Fuels Start-Up
Detroit infratech start-up Aradatum manufactures 200-foot-tall mobile, self-powered towers that enable universal communication and connectivity access. The company proved the engineering works with scale models and a beta site in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It now awaits completed production and delivery of full-scale working towers. The four pilot towers will be strategically placed throughout the U.S. to validate real-world expectations.
THE SITUATION
​Aradatum demonstrated its technology with a full-scale prototype in northern Michigan. It raised millions in seed funding and continues to attract investors. They weren’t anywhere on the telecommunications industry map. As is often the case, start-ups struggle to generate attention and investment in tried and true market segments.
PROJECT
Aradatum needed to build on its credibility to play in the telecom market. DYS Media developed a 12-month plan to get it connected with the right reporters with the right publications to ensure the right consumers received their message.

TACTICS
-
DYS Media worked with Aradaum to identify the customers who would most likely need their product.
-
We isolated words people speak in their industry such as “universal 5G” and “vertical wind turbine.” We included words unique to Aradatum such as “self-powered macro tower” and “collapsible blades.”
-
We searched those keywords to find the reporters and publications who could best deliver Aradatum’s value proposition to consumers and investors.
-
We delivered valuable information about the company and its role as an emerging technology to the media contacts we identified.
-
We helped media contacts to find story angles that would most appeal to their readers.
RESULTS
-
DYS Media earned 25 articles about Aradatum in such publications as Forbes, Inside Towers, Crain’s Detroit Business, Fierce Wireless, Total Telecom and Renewable Energy Magazine.
-
The telecommunications industry took notice. Aradatum’s towers are in the final stage of development and will soon head to market.
