RCRWirelessNews, Thursday, August 8th, 2024
German carrier Deutsche Telekom said it is focusing on growing internationalization in the Internet of Things (IoT) business with a new deal by its subsidiary Deutsche Telekom IoT with the Bridge Alliance, a business alliance of 35 mobile communications companies in Asia Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe.
Bridge Alliance provides connectivity and integrated value-added services, including IoT/M2M, to its members. Deutsche Telekom said it is the first European telecommunications company in this alliance.
'We are pooling the know-how and technical expertise of all members. Together, we always offer our customers the best connectivity solution for their global challenge,' said Dennis Nikles, managing director of Deutsche Telekom IoT. 'For companies from the Asian region, it is now even easier to do IoT business in Europe. This is particularly interesting for the growing market of Asian electric vehicles in Europe. But European customers also benefit. A strong global offering - all under one contract, one management and one globally standardized service,' he added.
