MONTREAL – The Global M2M Association (GMA), which includes Bell Canada, will showcase its revolutionary new Multi-Domestic Service at the Mobile World Congress 2015 early next month.
Jointly implemented by GMA operators, the Multi-Domestic Service is designed to help global enterprises capitalize on the growth of connected devices. According to the announcement, it is one of the most innovative M2M connectivity management services on the market and enables global deployment and management of M2M and Internet of Things (IoT) services predominantly in the automotive and consumer electronics industries.
Multinational enterprises offering connected products to their global customer base are faced today with a key challenge: how to provide a seamless and easy-to-manage localized IoT solution for end-users. The GMA's Multi-Domestic Service solves this issue by delivering a single consolidated M2M management platform provided by Ericsson and already rolled out with TeliaSonera, Orange and Bell Canada, leveraging GSMA-compliant embedded SIM cards (eUICC) and the subscription management platform provided by Gemalto.
MWC attendees can experience a live demonstration of the GMA's Multi-Domestic Service by visiting GSMA Innovation City Area, Hall 3, Stand 3A11&3A31, Ericsson Booth, Hall 2, Stand Z3.B1 or Gemalto Booth, Hall 5, Stand 5A80. The 2015 Mobile World Congress takes place March 2-5 in Barcelona, Spain.
Established in February 2011, the Global M2M Association is a cooperation of six international tier-one operators (Deutsche Telekom, Orange, TeliaSonera, Telecom Italia Mobile, Bell Canada and SoftBank) in the Machine-to-Machine (M2M) market with a focus on delivering best-in-class, enhanced and seamless M2M services globally and to maximize the business benefits of customers.
