The PennZone

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - PennZone -- Charlotte, NC – Imagine an outdoor umbrella that does more than just provide shade. Alizé Umbrella is redefining luxury outdoor living with its patent-pending built-in fan system, offering silent, refreshing airflow without bulky attachments or obstructing design. Funded through Kickstarter, this first-of-its-kind innovation is now available to homeowners, resorts, and design professionals seeking to elevate outdoor comfort without sacrificing aesthetics.

FROM THE SEA TO THE SKYLINE: THE FOUNDER'S UNEXPECTED JOURNEY

Alizé Umbrella is the brainchild of Ryan Dickerson, an entrepreneur with an unconventional background that spans sailing in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, immunology research, and servicing cooling systems for New York skyscrapers. His experience as a professional sailor made him acutely aware of the lack of effective outdoor cooling solutions, especially in high-end resorts and waterfront living spaces. That challenge inspired him to develop Alizé, merging marine-grade craftsmanship with advanced engineering to create a revolutionary outdoor comfort solution.

"We've reimagined the outdoor umbrella," says Dickerson. "Shade alone isn't enough anymore. With rising temperatures, people need cooling that seamlessly integrates into their outdoor spaces. Once you experience Alizé, you'll never look at a patio umbrella the same way again."
