Telenor Objects, a new business unit under the Telenor Group, has chosen Seamless as a strategic partner for a new partner network. The Shepherd® Partner Network – has been created to drive service innovation within the market for M2M (machine to machine) communication.

“Shepherd Partner Network supports Telenor Objects' vision, which is allowing any device to connect to any application. Seamless will play a key role bringing new applications to market”, says Thor Steffensen, Vice President Sales and Marketing in Telenor Objects.

Telenor Objects believes there in time will be a shift from vertically integrated, closed solutions to a more open and layered architecture for M2M. This trend which is much referred to as "Internet of Things", will lead to a flourishing of new applications that may be able to use already existing devices and infrastructure.
 

"We will together with Telenor Objects deliver new application and services to complex logistics processes. Our mission is to help our customers to get efficient processes with high quality and precision without waste of time and recourses", says CEO of Seamless AS, Olav Madland
