Shawn Welsh, VP of Marketing and Business Development at Telular, a Jasper ecosystem solution provider, said: “Telular is pleased to be part of the M2M Catalyst program. Our SkyBitz, TankLink and Telguard solutions can help operators move quickly into the growing asset and security monitoring verticals with feature-rich M2M services.”
Telular represents several vertical solution providers including SkyBitz – transportation trailer tracking, TankLink – tank level monitoring and Telguard – intrusion and fire systems monitoring.
“As the largest network of independently owned electric vehicle charging stations, ChargePoint is eager to work with Jasper’s partner operators to enhance electric vehicle charging solutions with M2M connectivity and associated cloud based services,” said Pat Romano, president and CEO of ChargePoint, also a Jasper ecosystem partner.
“The M2M Catalyst program not only provides tools and support for setting up and growing an M2M business, but is an opportunity for operators to tap into best practices from around the world, so that they get the competitive edge by accelerating their own time-to-market,” said Macario Namie, vice president, Marketing at Jasper Wireless.
