Adamind’s Technologies, Software, and Products will become part of Mobixell’s Portfolio of Mobile Multimedia Solutions
Wellesley, MA and Palo Alto,
California – 22 February 2007: Mobixell,
a leading provider of innovative mobile multimedia solutions and Adamind
(LSE: ADA), a global supplier of media adaptation software for the mobile
messaging (MMS), content, and convergence services markets, announce
that an agreement has been signed on the terms of sale of Adamind's
assets to Mobixell. Mobixell intends to merge Adamind’s products
and technologies to form a powerful market leader in the Mobile Multimedia
domain.
Adamind’s assets to be sold to Mobixell include intellectual property,
software, and contracts with customers and suppliers relating to the development,
marketing, and sale of all Adamind’s transcoding and Mobile Multimedia
software (the "MediaSpire" product family). In addition, the
majority of the Adamind's employees will become employees of Mobixell.
Mobixell will stand by its commitment to continue the support of existing
customers from both companies. Mobixell further intends to continue
the development plans according to previously communicated roadmaps,
and invest greater resources in the development of new and exciting mobile
multimedia solutions.
Amir Aharoni, Chief Executive Officer of Mobixell said: "The synergy
between both companies; their strategy of developing products according
to a best-of-breed approach, and building on the leading capabilities
of each of the organizations, will create an entity that is greater than
the parts constituting it. By combining the Adamind and Mobixell
product portfolios, the company is now well positioned in the marketplace
as an expert in the area of multimedia over mobile, and can offer existing
and new customers a wider best-of-breed set of technologies."
"This step forward fortifies the company's presence in the marketplace
with a more balanced regional spread, and greater resources invested in
development, global support, and professional services. The combined customer
installed base is impressive, with over 150 mobile operator and content
provider deployments worldwide, and strategic relationships with most
of the top MMSC and Mobile Multimedia Value-Add-Service vendors in the
marketplace," says Shailendra Jain, CEO of Adamind.
"The trend within the mobile multimedia market reveals a need for
consolidation in order to gain stronger market positions. This step reflects
this consolidation, and provides the company with a compelling opportunity
to emerge as a strong and dominant player in the market with a secure
future," says Orna Berry, Executive Chairperson of Adamind.
The company intends to lead the mobile lifestyle revolution by
continuing to develop and deliver innovative Mobile Multimedia solutions
to enable Peer-2-Peer content sharing, User Generated Content Communities,
mobile advertising, and more. Service and content providers around the world
will thus be enabled to generate new revenue streams, maximize the mobile
multimedia business, and enjoy higher ARPU which derives from these services.
