Global partnership for KORE Wireless and ATrack

M2M wireless network provider KORE Wireless has established a global partnership with Taiwanese telematics hardware manufacturer ATrack.

The partnership will provide ATrack customers access to KORE M2M network services in over 150 countries worldwide. Eligible customers will receive the KORE M2M Starter Kit free of charge, including two KORE Global Connect SIM cards, with 90 days of M2M data and SMS for testing hardware on the KORE M2M network.

“It is very complex and time consuming creating relationships with local network operators in every country you want to deploy in,” said Shane Murphy, vice president and general manager of KORE Wireless Asia Pacific. “By partnering with KORE, ATrack can now provide their customers with a single SIM that will work in multiple countries, across multiple carriers and get them connected instantly.

“Asia is poised to be the fastest growing region for M2M over the next five years. Our goal is to partner with quality device and application providers across the region to make sure that our customers have all the tools necessary to take advantage of this exciting market shift.”

This marks the first partnership of its kind between the two companies, who have historically focused purely on providing hardware and left their customers to find their own network provider in each country.

“Our customers are still free to select their own network when they use our hardware,” noted Frank Tang, CEO of ATrack. “However, what we are doing with this partnership is allowing those customers who don’t have an existing relationship or want to deploy using the power of a dedicated M2M network provider with easy, quick access to test their new device on one of the world’s largest M2M networks free of charge.”

New and existing ATrack customers can contact their ATrack sales manager for a referral code allowing them to sign up for the KORE M2M Starter Kit at http://www.korewireless.com.au/m2mstarter/.
