Connected Life Solutions, LLC was established in Florida in 2016, with operations meaningfully commencing in 2019. The company operates under the name COLife.
COLife is a multidisciplinary business, technology and project-development advisory firm. We work with organizations facing opportunities that cross traditional boundaries—where strategy, technology, finance, infrastructure, government relationships, commercialization and implementation must come together.
Rather than maintaining a large fixed organization, COLife assembles the right combination of experienced professionals around the actual requirements of each engagement. That keeps the team relevant, accountable and focused on the work at hand.
