The worldwide collaboration and distribution agreement between Myriota and Globalsat Group will enhance sensor connectivity for Globalsat´s customers.
Myriota, a developer of satellite IoT communication, operates a global data messaging service that is designed for efficiency in long-term asset tracking and telemetry, making a perfect fit for applications in agriculture, transport / logistics, utilities, mining and environmental sensing.
Sensing in the field at scale requires easy field deployment (intelligent install assist), long field life (low energy communication), robust data security (privacy centric security), and a cost point that supports massive scale deployment. Myriota has pioneered IoT connectivity technology that delivers against these uniquely challenging requirements, innovation that is protected by more than 160 patents.
Globalsat Group is a leader in mobile (MSS) and other satellite services, providing specialized voice, data, M2M/IoT, software, and hardware throughout the Americas since 1999. Most customers use these services in mission-critical applications where life or infrastructure are at stake or exceptional circumstances when or where other connectivity networks cannot operate reliably or at all.
The agreement will make Myriota’s services and enabling hardware offerings available in all countries and territories where Globalsat Group currently provides market access and value-added relationships with local business and government.
In tandem with a worldwide distribution agreement, Myriota will be providing Globalsat with advanced pre-release access to hardware kits, which will allow the multi-country consortium to run internal testing and design timely implementation and migration strategies to be made available in 2024.
Globalsat CEO, J. Alberto Palacios, said, “We are delighted to be adding the innovative Myriota platform to our roster of solutions. Their IoT service and products are especially interesting in growing economies throughout the region, where connectivity is increasingly needed to drive efficiency and safety at cost-of-ownership points which are not achievable with other providers. Robust encryption, authentication and privacy are essential parts of the protocols Myriota has developed – they are of important value in markets which have become increasingly conscious of security risks and will be of particular interest to our current and future government customers.”
Ben Cade, CEO of Myriota, said, “We’re thrilled to partner with an industry leader like Globalsat Group to address a crucial gap in their market that current technology cannot fill. Myriota’s technology offers unparalleled global coverage, battery life, security, and a total cost of ownership that revolutionises IoT for critical industries such as agriculture, environment, and logistics. We’re excited to see how our technology enhances the livelihoods and experiences of Globalsat’s customers.“
