Sennott to Focus on Research, Sells Share in Proloquo2Go
June 3, 2010
Amsterdam, The Netherlands; State College, PA
Dear Proloquo2Go user, community member, and/or Proloquo2Go partner,
Samuel Sennott, co-creator of Proloquo2Go, is selling his share in Proloquo2Go to AssistiveWare in order to focus his research and development efforts on his PhD at The Pennsylvania State University and on his new company, Sennott Technologies, LLC.
Proloquo2Go has made a large impact on the AAC world over the two years of the collaboration between AssistiveWare and Sennott Consulting. When they came together almost two years ago, they believed they could make a difference by creating a new AAC solution that was powerful, affordable, and cool. From the amazing user community, to a front-page feature in the NY Times, Proloquo2Go has had a profound impact.
While Sennott will not continue to be a part of Proloquo2Go, he will remain fully committed to the AAC community, serving through his research and future endeavors. He has full confidence that AssistiveWare will continue to provide great service as well as many further enhancements to Proloquo2Go that will benefit the Proloquo2Go community.
David and AssistiveWare would like to use this occasion to thank Sam for the important contributions he has made to Proloquo2Go and, not in the least, his success in drawing public attention to the needs of AAC users. With his ongoing research, he will be able to make even more contributions to the field of AAC in the future. Let us all give Sam a big thank you and wish him well in his further pursuits.
Samuel Sennott would like to specially thank David Niemeijer for the amazing work we did together. He would also like to thank his father, mother, family, Deirdre, Joseph Barnick, Pam H., Sue M., Mads, the Penn State community, The DC Crew, TLC, Origin Instruments, Apple Inc. and the whole Proloquo2Go community for their support.
Best wishes,
David and Sam

Caught your repeat session at ASHA convention at noon on Friday. It was GREAT and I wished you had had more time to do more demonstration and discussion. So cutting edge. My late husband, Robert J. Currie, caught the cutting edge of video education and use of coaxile interactive video conferencing by in the 70′s and I can remember how exciting it was to introduce new technology to professionals to effectively expand their worlds.
More to the point…. I was looking forward to downloading your information at the ASHA website for the convention and when I went to the site it gave me a message that there were no downloads. I was really counting on that to share your info with the special educators from our supervisory union tomorrow (Tuesday 11/23/10). We all have new iPods and iPads to use with our kids and we’re looking for good programs and apps to use with our students.
If you can, please e-mail me your handout so I can share it with our staff.
I hope you enjoy riding the wave. Sometimes going to the mountain top and seeing the possibilities is a roller coaster ride as you will see and know so much more than others can even visualize or conceptualize, but it is also very personally satisfying, so best of the world to you.
Thanks for your presentation, your enthusiasm and willingness to share.
