Singapore Wireless Companies at 3GSM

5th April , 2004

ASIA : A delegation of eight local wireless companies made their way to Cannes recently to exhibit Singapore's innovation in wireless applications and solutions at the Singapore Pavilion.

Led by IDA, the eight companies showcased their various products and services at the 3GSM World Congress 2004 and were testament to Singapore's position as being an ideal lab for wireless innovations.

The eight are Clearhub, I'M Technologies, Innvo System, Java Competency Wireless Centre, Mikoishi (Asia-Pacific), TalariaX, Ufinity and Wireless Intellect Labs. The companies gave a firm thumbs up to IDA's leadership in bringing the group to 3GSM.

IDA's objective in leading the Singapore companies to Cannes is to showcase Singapore's attractiveness as a "living lab" for wireless innovations. A world-class infocommm infrastructure, ubiquitous wireless connectivity and a ready pool of avid technology adopters are traits of Singapore's ideal position for developing and piloting wireless applications.

Mr Mark Frass, Wireless Architect, Java Wireless Competency Centre, said: "Participation of 3GSM conference in Cannes with IDA has been an overwhelming success for JWCC in terms of industry connections, insight and exposure. We gained insights into the global heartbeat of the mobile industry and where it is heading. This will directly lead to a refinement of our positioning in the area of mobile application quality. We would not have been able to achieve this on our own, or without the exposure to the calibre of industry players one can only find at the conference."

Another participant, Mr Alex Goatcher, managing director, Mikoishi (Asia-Pacific), said: "3GSM is the largest show for the mobile industry.
