Globalstar, Inc. (NYSE American: GSAT), the next-generation mobile satellite and communications services provider, announced today Peiker Holding Gmbh and Globalstar have entered a strategic partnership to bring satellite-based emergency services and telematics capabilities to the automotive industry.

For decades, Peiker has been a leading provider of connectivity modules for use in vehicles that enable fast and reliable data transmission on the road. Peiker trailblazed the path to today’s emergency call (eCall) services with its Polestar product, a telematics system based on mobile phones that tracks vehicles using GPS.

Globalstar has been saving lives with its SPOT satellite messengers for two decades, recently celebrating over 10,000 rescues as well as providing emergency services in the direct-to-device industry with its wholesale customer.

“Peiker is looking forward to working with Globalstar to bring innovative communication solutions to vehicles,” said Andreas Peiker, Managing Director of Peiker. “This builds on our experience with the eCall system, which we successfully introduced into vehicles back in the early 2000s.” Peiker continued, “Our goal is to take the protection of people on the roads to the next level and to make communication access even more reliable in critical situations.”

The partnership enables Peiker to represent Globalstar in Europe and support Globalstar not only with the introduction and distribution in the European market, but act as a technical support partner in relevant projects. In addition, Peiker will contribute its own product development resources and initiatives to optimize the performance of Globalstar technologies for automotive applications.

“We are excited to extend our satellite-based emergency services and IoT connectivity to the automotive industry - connecting everyone, everywhere, all the time,” said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, CEO, Globalstar. “This partnership with Peiker Holding, one of the early connected car innovators, will accelerate long standing interest from automotive OEMs towards commercially available critical services for both passengers and cars.”
