Three Network, a telecom network in the U.K., has
inked an agreement with Macheen, a cloud service provider for connected
devices.
The agreement between Three and Macheen extends Macheen’s
turn-key platform to include the UK’s fastest growing 3G network.
This is a fantastic deal for Three, Macheen and the ever
growing connected device market. The combined package of the UK’s fastest
growing 3G Network with Macheen’s proven platform and customer base is a very
exciting prospect that will be a major catalyst for the embedded 3G
connectivity market,” said Lynda Burton, director of Wholesale, Three
Network.
Macheen enables 3G connectivity for device manufacturers
that produce anything from laptops, tablets, and SATNAVs to gaming devices and
other portable consumer electronic devices.
“Device makers are looking to turn lower-margin
hardware into constant customer connections without the heavy
lifting,” said Richard Schwartz, president and CEO of Macheen.
“That transition begins with simple, seamless
connections to the cloud, followed by on-going offers of new content and
services. We are seeing a significant improvement in both the purchase and
connection rates for device makers who build in connectivity into their
devices,” Richard added.
