i want to make the connection to the tv wirelessly. what do i need to achieve this?

this is for my office so its important that it be done wirelessly.

Too many solutions so what you need to know is that it's not done over WiFi. Some folk think WiFi is used or their network. So google "Wireless HDMI" to find hundreds of solutions.

USB to VGA kits might be worth a look at as well.

IOGear as an example.
