CommtechWireless Expands Into Europe

CommtechWireless, supplier of integrated messaging solutions for mission critical and hospitality environments has opened a European branch of the company in Denmark.

In a considerable coup for the company, CommtechWireless Europe will be overseen by European CEO Mikael Andersen.

Andersen is the former VP Distribution Sales at KIRK Telecom A/S – a key player in the DECT wireless telephony market.
What drew Mikael Andersen to CommtechWireless Europe was the belief that the company product offering was one currently missing from the market. He explains,

"The trend within professional telephony is coming to a turning point. Now, wireless handsets with fancy features are not enough. Applications are needed to provide the best possible value for the customer and here messaging is the key."

CommtechWireless’ flagship product CommtechMessenger and its mid-level solution counterpart the Fusion Series, allow businesses to integrate disparate technologies with a single messaging platform. So, for example, in hospitals nurses can receive emergency alerts, security alarms can be monitored and doctors contacted with the integration between the CommtechWireless products, nurse call systems, alarms and DECT wireless telephony.

This integration capability has ensured CommtechWireless Europe’s focus on building business relationships with the key players in the DECT and WiFi arena.

This focus has already seen the certification of the Fusion Series and CommtechMessenger by SpectraLink and the development of two way integration between those products and WiFi and DECT handsets.

2005 Western Region Entrepreneur of the Year and CommtechWireless CEO Nathan Buzza explains the company's wireless telephony focus is well served strategically with operations in Europe;

"The DECT and WiFi market has exploded in Europe and the United States. The enhanced feature set we can offer that technology means we have mutual interests with important technology companies like SpectraLink, KIRK, Cisco and others. We are already operating out of the United States on a large scale; it makes sense that we open in Europe to grow our interest there.”

Mr Andersen is confident that the future of CommtechWireless is bright and states that "CommtechWireless is now becoming a true worldwide player represented on all continents. We are truly offering a unique enhancement to existing infrastructure."
