Every utility pole carries something essential: power, fiber, and the connections communities depend on. We’re ikeGPS, the PoleOS™ Company, and we’re working to become the standard for collecting, managing, and analyzing pole and overhead asset information. Electric utilities, communications companies, and their engineering partners rely on our solutions to design, construct, and inspect overhead infrastructure. It’s an industry that flies under the radar, and we’re proud to help build the power and communications infrastructure of the future.

IKE is publicly traded on the New Zealand (NZX) and Australian (ASX) stock exchanges under the ticker IKE. We’re a collaborative team, with our US headquarters in Broomfield, Colorado, offices in Chelsea, Alabama, and Wellington, New Zealand, and colleagues working across the US.
