Published on:
Ericsson has announced a cooperation with Russia's MegaFon, to develop the market around machine-to-machine connectivity. Ericsson will provide MegaFon with consulting services and utilities market research plus systems integration services as part of the agreement.
Ericsson will also support MegaFon in offering services to enterprises from different industries, in order to leverage efficiencies along their customers' value chain from production to distribution.
Dmitry Maselsky, Head of Ericsson Russia, said: "It took one hundred years for technology to connect places, 25 years to connect 6 billion people, and by 2020 we will have the ability to connect up to 50 billion devices. We see over 2 billion of those connections will be right here in Russia. Connectivity across a massive number and variety of devices will help businesses reach new efficiencies, and we will fully support MegaFon in capturing new revenue streams and opportunities."
The pilot phase is set to be launched December 2012.
