DDB Technology Redefines Innovation by Transforming Business Models, Not Just Products
NEW YORK, Aug. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — At a time when the term 'innovation' is often confined to gadgets and features, DDB Technology, LLC is shifting the conversation. The New York–based firm, named Private Equity Company of the Year – United States by the Innovation & Excellence Awards in 2023 and again this year, is leading a new wave of innovation—one that begins at the business model level. Founded by Denise Drace-Brownell, JD, MPH, DDB Technology stands apart in its belief that innovation is not just about developing new technologies, but about restructuring how value is created, captured, and scaled. This philosophy underpins the company's work across its three core focus areas: technology, med-tech, and intellectual property commercialization. 'What I discovered over the course of my career is that we rarely think of business models themselves as vehicles for innovation,' said Drace-Brownell. 'That's a blind spot—because in today's world, the real competitive edge is often not in what you build, but in how you bring it to market, fund it, and sustain it. That's where we shine.' Drace-Brownell's multidisciplinary background—in law, marketing, science, and private equity—has shaped DDB Technology's distinctive approach. The company is best known for helping founders retain equity by unlocking the latent commercial value in their innovation, before they seek external funding. In doing so, DDB helps avoid premature dilution and gives innovators greater strategic control over their ventures. Pioneering Steps by DDB Technology The company pioneers advanced lens optics and specialised eyewear to improve visual performance amid rising digital screen use. These innovations address growing public health challenges like Digital Eye Strain and BV Disorder, conditions that significantly impact productivity and wellbeing. The company's engineering advances extend into AR/VR, industrial equipment, and digital interface design. In the climate sector, DDB Technology offers AI-powered environmental risk management solutions for well-capitalised B2B clients. Specifically, helping them identify vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and convert climate challenges into competitive advantages – including supply chain differentiation and innovation leadership. In intellectual property, the firm empowers organisations to unlock hidden value in their intangible assets through its patented IP Pro platform; this enables clients to assess, prioritise, and capitalise on innovation to maximise revenue, financing, and long-term market share. This cross-domain innovation is supported by a flexible, equity-minded operating model. DDB Technology builds strategic partnerships while maintaining a lean in-house structure based out of Rockefeller Center, where even the office design reflects the company's ethos. Creative use of multi-functional spaces—including rooftop gardens for meetings—mirrors the company's core belief in unlocking untapped value from overlooked assets. This approach caught the attention of the judging panel at the 2023 and 2025 Innovation & Excellence Awards, who commended the firm's 'unrivalled expertise in markets and capital' and its ability to 'help business leaders uncover the real value of their organizations.' Drace-Brownell sees this award not as a capstone, but as a call to deepen the company's mission: 'Our clients come to us with powerful ideas, many of which have been overlooked or underleveraged. We help them turn those ideas into fully formed strategies—combining technical innovation with market positioning and structural ownership advantages.' In a competitive landscape where innovation is often reduced to buzzwords or app updates, DDB Technology is restoring depth and purpose to the term. The firm believes that the most transformative innovations are those that empower individuals and organizations to think differently about the systems they operate in—whether that's reimagining the optics industry, designing climate-resilient business models, or helping founders retain what they've built. For companies and creators looking for a partner in real innovation—not just execution—DDB Technology is redefining what's possible. About DDB Technology Founded in 2000, DDB Technology, LLC is a New York–based alternative private equity and innovation strategy firm focused on unlocking untapped value in overlooked markets. Specializing in technology, med-tech, and intellectual property strategy, the firm helps clients rethink how innovation is structured, funded, and delivered to the world.

New Met-Ed Substation Brings Stronger and More Reliable Power to Northampton County
READING, Pa., Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — More than 5,000 residents and businesses in fast-growing Northampton County, Pa., are now receiving electricity from a new substation designed to support regional development. The Klecknersville Substation, recently energized by FirstEnergy Pennsylvania Electric Company (FE PA), a FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE) company known locally as Met-Ed, provides a new power source for customers in Moore, Lehigh, East Allen and Upper Nazareth townships and Bath and Chapman boroughs. Built for Growth and Reliability Previously, these customers relied on power lines that stretched 15 to 20 miles from the Northwood Substation in Palmer Township – routes through wooded areas that were more susceptible to tree damage and vehicle accidents. Now, shorter 5 to 10-mile lines coming from the new substation deliver electricity more efficiently, with smart technology that can automatically reroute power during outages so fewer customers are affected and service is restored faster. John Hawkins, President of FirstEnergy Pennsylvania: 'Five years in the making, this substation is a big win for the community. It not only strengthens the grid for 5,400 Met-Ed customers, but it also eases the load on our Northwood Substation and enhances electric service for customers in Palmer Township, especially during periods of high demand like we've experienced during this hot summer.' Smart Technology for Faster Restoration The Klecknersville Substation is equipped with smart grid technology, including automated devices that: Detect and isolate problems automatically. Restore service remotely without dispatching a crew. Pinpoint outage locations to speed up repairs. These upgrades mean fewer, shorter and less widespread outages for customers. Watch a video explaining how smart grid technology works. Extra Protection from Wildlife To help prevent animal-related outages, the substation includes wildlife guards – rubber boots and sleeves that keep squirrels and other climbing animals away from energized equipment. Part of a Larger Investment This project is part of Energize365, FirstEnergy's $28 billion investment program to modernize the electric grid across the footprint between 2025 and 2029. The goal: a smarter, more secure grid that meets the needs of customers today and tomorrow's growth. Met-Ed serves approximately 592,000 customers within 3,300 square miles of eastern and southeastern Pennsylvania. Follow Met-Ed on X @Met Ed and on Facebook at FirstEnergy is dedicated to integrity, safety, reliability and operational excellence. Its electric distribution companies form one of the nation's largest investor-owned electric systems, serving customers in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, Maryland and New York. The company's transmission subsidiaries operate approximately 24,000 miles of transmission lines that connect the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions.
