Tele2 and Cisco Strengthen Partnership to Deliver Enhanced Global IoT Connectivity Management Solutions for Businesses across Industries

Stockholm – Tele2 AB (“Tele2”) (Nasdaq Stockholm: TEL2 A and TEL2 B) and Cisco are expanding their partnership to deliver advanced IoT solutions to businesses across industries. Tele2 and Cisco will work together to bring new capabilities to 2CONTROL, the Connectivity Management Platform (CMP) powered by Cisco IoT Control Center. This will create new offers on a global scale to support the diverse demands of new and existing IoT customers in areas such as massive IoT, automotive, and utilities.

Under their new agreement, Tele2 IoT will use Cisco IoT Control Center to offer extended functionality within 2CONTROL to customers worldwide. This will include two comprehensive solution packages, Essential and Advantage, that are designed to cater to customers’ varying requirements for powering their IoT ecosystems. 

 

-        IoT use cases are mobility’s next frontier, and for enterprises, efficient and effective IoT brings growth opportunities, whether that's optimizing their own operations or offering customers new services and experiences. We’re excited about how this will grow our relationship with Tele2 and create an environment where customers can easily adopt and innovate, says Masum Mir, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Cisco’s Provider Mobility business.

Tele2 IoT and Cisco will also work together on an ambitious development roadmap to create new capabilities for 2CONTROL. Additionally, they will cooperate and present new features for IoT Control Center – part of Cisco Mobility Services Platform – to address the evolving digitization needs of businesses in different industries.

 

Today Tele2 IoT exclusively delivers its connectivity services via 2CONTROL. This expanded partnership will enable the creation of new, differentiated offerings to meet the diverse needs of businesses across various sectors. Examples include Tele2 IoT supporting the automotive industry with the ability to deploy vehicles in restricted markets, as well as enhancing massive IoT applications through advanced rating capabilities, ensuring improved cost control and quality for their deployments.

 

-        As the IoT market continues to grow exponentially, particularly in massive IoT applications, our collaboration with Cisco is pivotal. By combining our global connectivity with IoT Control Center, we are perfectly positioned to swiftly address new use cases and adapt to the ever-changing needs of IoT customers and ensure that our 2CONTROL platform remains at the forefront of innovation in the IoT space. Our decade- long partnership with Cisco has been instrumental to our growth. Extending this partnership will enable us to continue our international expansion by offering unmatched solutions in the rapidly expanding IoT market, says Stefan Trampus, EVP B2B, Tele2.
