Openet and Huawei have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly explore opportunities within the telecoms market. Openet becomes the latest company to partner with Huawei’s mLAB to create new business models for global operators in the mobile broadband era.
Under the terms of agreement, Openet and Huawei will be committed to creating, validating and promoting new business models. With these business models, operators will be able to optimise network resources, offer differentiated services to end users and increase sales revenues to achieve greater success.
Huawei’s mLAB is a mobile broadband solution research laboratory that facilitates close cooperation with industry players. It will benefit from Openet’s understanding of business innovation and telecoms industry experience. Openet will provide its Policy and Charging Control (PCC) solutions working with Huawei’s wireless and EPC networks to determine valuable mobile broadband business models.
“Openet is pleased to work with Huawei in mLAB. This joint effort will give us the opportunity to complement each other in the areas both are best. We will be able to effectively explore and hatch future mobile broadband business models,” said Apollo Guy, Openet global vice president, alliances. “We firmly believe that our software, with the ability to quickly adapt to new business requirements, will innovate new business use cases in mLAB. The end results will give both Huawei and Openet a chance to present to the outside world what the future mobile broadband business models entail.”
Dai Jisheng, Huawei’s Wireless Network Business Unit Director for mobile broadband Solutions, added: “Huawei’s mLAB aims to be open to research innovative and profitable mobile broadband solutions and products. Openet shares our commitment to meeting the challenges of a rapidly evolving telecoms industry.”
