Redknee Awarded New European Patent
Redknee Innovation Enables Network Operators to Rate and Bill Short Message
Service Traffic in Real Time
TORONTO - May 6, 2008 - Redknee (AIM: RKN), a leading provider of innovative
infrastructure software that monetizes and personalizes services and content for
mobile operators, is pleased to announce that the Company has been issued
European Patent No. 1458200 (the "Patent") for its "Improved Method and System
for Short Message Service ("SMS") Rating and Billing". The Patent enables
network operators to classify and rate SMS traffic in real-time, based upon any
number of attributes and variables including time-of-day, origination address,
destination address, and message content (e.g. text vs. ring-tones).
The award of this patent further highlights Redknee's strong commitment to
Research and Development ('R&D') and maintaining its position as a key industry
innovator in the real-time OSS/BSS software space, as demonstrated by over 40
issued patents and pending patent applications. The newly patented technology,
among other capabilities, enables operators to have more flexibility in their
pricing and marketing models and to deliver an enriched subscriber experience
seamlessly across multiple billing paradigms (pre/post-paid, hybrid accounts).
"At Redknee, we remain committed to investing in innovation to advance the cause
of our industry and look forward to further accelerating our thought leadership
as we capitalize on the inherent value of our intellectual property rights,"
stated Lucas Skoczkowski, CEO of Redknee.
With over 2 trillion messages projected worldwide for 2008, SMS continues to be
the most popular mobile data segment, representing approximately US$65-75
billion in messaging revenues. SMS services, which range from person-to-person
communications and the delivery of premium content, to the enhancement of
customer relationship management capabilities, contributes in the order of 12%
to 15% of network operators' revenues in Europe. According to industry analysts,
real-time rating technologies such as those offered by Redknee, that enable a
variety of billing options and business models, will facilitate the continued
growth of SMS based services.
Bohdan Zabawskyj, CTO at Redknee commented, "This Patent is yet another
affirmation of Redknee's objective to equip network operators with market
leading technologies for the profitable monetization of subscriber services and
in turn ensure that Redknee remains the software solution provider of choice."
